TWO evenings ago I drank a wine which brought back many warm memories, albeit tinged with much sadness, of a great friend, Gerard Jaboulet, of the famous wine producer Paul Jaboulet Aine in Tain l'Hermitage, Rhone Valley. The wine was Hermitage La Chapelle 2000.
Hermitage La Chapelle 2000, Paul Jaboulet Aine
MEDIUM-HUED dark brownish red, giving out a youthful lovely aroma of ripe fruit - oranges and tropical fruit. A big-volume wine, firm, rich taste of ripe tropical fruit, so tasty was the wine one was tempted to take mouthful after mouthful! Ripe, rich taste, orangey, tropical fruit with very seductive savoury undertones, finishing long and clean. A lovely wine.
