We just got our hands on a small parcel of perfectly aged Jaboulet La Chapelle. We only have 35 bottles available because we had to “taste” one, for QC reasons, of course. The 2005 is sitting in the perfect drinking window. It can age for a few more years gracefully, but it’s ready and rockin’ now!

About The Producer

Originally founded by Antoine Jaboulet in 1834, the domaine eventually took ownership of the finest appellations of the northern Rhone Valley, including Hermitage and Crozes Hermitage, as well as Saint-Joseph, Cornas and Saint-Peray. The Jaboulet family sold the company to the Frey family in 2006 and Caroline Frey is now at the helm and the wines could not be better.

Vinous
Dark ruby, almost opaque. Assertively fragrant nose combines pungent violet and lavendar-accented cassis, blueberry, cherry put and graphite. Spicy dark fruit and mineral flavors shows as impressive sweetness that carries into the solidly tannic and very long finish. This boasts great depth and chewy texture, but the dominating impression today is of rich, powerful fruit.
