Paul Jaboulet-Aine: La Chapelle Hermitage 2018

75cl / 13%

“The beautifully proportioned 2018 Hermitage La Chapelle comes across as a complex, complete version of this renowned bottling, with no rough edges—just moderate spice, cassis, red berries and cedar on the nose.

It’s medium to full-bodied, silky and fine, brimming with harmony and elegance on the palate, while the finish is long, echoing with cassis, charcoal and crushed stone.

The tannins firm up a bit on the finish, so I suspect this will close down soon, then blossom sometime after 2025.”

~ Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate

About the Paul Jaboulet-Aine: La Chapelle Hermitage 2018

Tasting Notes

Colour: Intense ruby red, limpid and bright.
Aroma: Lots of ripe red and blue fruits as well as flowers, smoked meat, licorice, and spice define the bouquet
Palate: The 2018 Hermitage La Chapelle is a monster of a wine that brings tons of richness and depth while staying light on its feet and balanced. It’s full-bodied, has a ripe, powerful, yet balanced mouthfeel, and a great finish. Given some previous showings of this wine, it was surprisingly accessible on this occasion, with a wealth of fruit, sweet tannins, and tons of character. It’s a brilliant wine as well as a magical Hermitage. (JD)

Awards: 98pts – Wine Advocate-Parker; 98pts – Jeb Dunnuck; 96pts – James Suckling

History of Paul Jaboulet-Aîné

Paul Jaboulet Aine has been a part of the Rhône Valley wine industry for almost two centuries, beginning with a small plot of land on the hills of Hermitage, before expanding throughout the region. Today, it encompasses more than 100 hectares (250 acres) of vineyards making wines from the northern and southern Rhône, including Hermitage, Crozes-Hermitage, Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Condrieu and Cornas.

The maison was passed through the Jaboulet family until the purchase by the Frey family in 2006. The Paul Jaboulet Hermitage La Chapelle is the estate’s flagship wine and is one of the most sought-after wines from the Rhône, reaching high prices at auction.
