100 Robert Parker
Opaque plum/garnet-colored, with a fabulously sweet, youthful bouquet of licorice, incense, smoked meats, pepper, and blackberry/cassis fruit, the full-bodied 1978 La Chapelle is extremely young with astonishing vigor, velvety tannin, and a full-bodied, multi-dimensional, layered personality. The finish lasts for over 60 seconds. Remarkably fresh and not yet fully mature, the super-concentrated 1978 should continue to age well for another three decades. Anticipated maturity: now-2030

Last year I visited Paul Jaoulet Aîne, and I came away very impressed with the way the estate is headed. After a period of decline in quality, under new ownership the wines are becoming more and more suggestive of older, outstanding vintages. You can view the full report I wrote here, but I thought I’d share a further perfect wine – the 1978 La Chapelle. Today the wine shows an almost smokey character on the nose with so many dried plums, pepper and meat. The palate, meanwhile, is incredibly supple with round and velvety tannins and wondrous, sexy fruit. Unquestionably a perfect wine.

Fantastic quality makes your palate spin with joy. Warm July and August with timely rains were a recipe for greatness, and this is a vin de garde. Seamless and silky, but also with a firm backbone of mineral, wet earth, plum, blackberry and leather notes. An old-fashioned red with a long finish.--La Chapelle vertical. Drink now through 2020. ?PM

Domaine Paul Jaboulet Aîné
Inmitten der Hermitage-Hänge begann im Jahr 1834 Antoine Jaboulet, sein fruchtbares Land zu bestellen, und er setzte alles daran, aus seinen sorgfältig gepflegten Reben herausragende Weine zu machen. Seit damals sind viele Generationen seinen Weg mit alljährlichem Erfolg weitergegangen, bis sie schließlich 2006 das Anwesen an die Familie Frey verkauften. Und die neuen Eigentümer, selber mit einem tiefverwurzelten Weinhintergrund und Besitzer des Château La Lagune in Bordeaux, halten Jaboulets Leidenschaft für höchste Qualität weiter aufrecht. Unter Leitung von Caroline Frey wurden Kellerei und Weinberge einigen Erneuerungen unterzogen, wovon die Umstellung auf nachhaltige Bewirtschaftung sicherlich die ausschlaggebendste war. Die knapp 121 Hektar über das Rhônetal verstreute Rebfläche beherbergt auf ihren nördlichen Parzellen in den Côtes du Rhône die Rebsorte Syrah, während die Grundstücke mit Roussanne, Marsanne und Viognier dem Weißwein vorbehalten sind. Das Flaggschiff von Jaboulet, der Hermitage La Chapelle, ist der großartigste Wein, der jemals auf diesem Weingut produziert wurde, dicht gefolgt vom Hermitage La Petite Chapelle.
