Expert's opinions

95 / 100
Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate
More honeyed, fuller-bodied and exuberant is the 2009 Hermitage La Chapelle Blanc. This gorgeous white wine was aged in 100% French oak barrels, of which 50% were new. It offers up copious aromas of crushed rocks, citrus oil, mangoes, nectarines and acacia flowers as well as hints of licorice and quince. Full-bodied, dense, layered, and elegant as well as powerful and authoritative, it should drink well for 25-30+ years.

For almost two centuries, Paul Jaboulet Aîné has been offering consumers the product of ancestral expertise, placing excellence at the heart of its strategy. To perpetuate these values, the company strengthens this heritage both in the vineyard through new acquisitions and in the quality of the wines while respecting the environment. The diversity of terroirs in the "lieux dits" gives the wine a particular identity through the blending of different plots. Its La Chapelle cuvée, based on the hills of Hermitage, reigns over the Rhône Valley. In the 13th century, returning from the Crusades, it welcomed the Chevalier de Stérimberg. Later it would become the family's flagship, Hermitage La Chapelle, offering great sensations to tasters. The 1961 vintage will be classified among the Twelve Mythical Bottles of the 20th century, with a few bottles and magnums still sleeping at Jaboulet and in some cellars around the world. The name of Hermitage "La Chapelle" is linked to the small Saint-Christophe chapel overlooking the terraced vineyard dominating the Rhône. These Syrahs are planted on rich and varied soils with a great diversity of terroirs (les Bessards, les Greffieux, le Méal and les Rocoules). It is from the richness of these different terroirs that the complexity of Hermitage La Chapelle is born.
