2014 Hermitage, La Chapelle, Paul Jaboulet Aîné, Rhône
Product: 2014-06750-8116330
Description
The 2014 Hermitage La Chapelle shows the more charming, supple style of the vintage and, while young, is certainly drinking nicely. Giving up pretty redcurrant and black raspberry fruits as well as chalky minerals, peppery herbs, spice, and hints of charred meat, it hits the palate with medium-bodied richness, a supple, elegant texture, fine tannins, and a great finish. Despite the charming style of its fruit, it has a classic Hermitage focus, minerality, and structure and is a wine that will evolve gracefully on its balance for another two decades. It should hit full maturity in another 4-5 years or so.
Drink 2026 - 2042
