Paul Jaboulet Aîné La Chapelle Hermitage Syrah 2012

Adam Kincaid

Drank this 2012 in early 2023 and I think it is still young! Could go another decade. Delicious nonetheless. Immediate scents of green bell pepper and herbaceous goods that morphs into blue and black fruits. Vanilla is present but definitely secondary. Upon drinking there is a solid structure with a focused power of restrained medium acidity. Spices and some grease come to the forefront. Great lasting finish. Would love to try again in a few years.

Youthful & mostly primary that will need more time showing black fruit, spice, mineral & violet

I like this vintage for N Rhones & this La Chapelle was drinking well showing lots of dark fruits structured & balance with silky tannins smoky, mineral with sweet, savory spice & violet.
