Hermitage La Chapelle 2013 from Paul Jaboulet Aîné is a mature Syrah from the Northern Rhône. Sourced from the prestigious slopes of Le Méal and Les Bessards, the wine reflects the granite-driven power of this historic appellation. The 2013 vintage was a cooler year that produced wines with high aromatic height and firm, precise tannins. Following a long maturation in French oak, the wine displays notes of blackberries, smoked meats, cracked black pepper and crushed stones. The palate is vertical and energetic, possessing a piercing acidity that balances its natural concentration.

Vinous
Bright purple. Sexy, highly perfumed scents of ripe boysenberry, cherry cola, smoky Indian spices and potpourri take on a vibrant mineral quality in the glass. Smooth, expansive and impressively deep, showing a surprisingly delicate touch to the sweet black and blue fruit, floral pastille and spicecake flavors. Smooth, slow-building tannins come up slowly and add focus to an extremely long, juicy, mineral- and floral-driven finish. Josh Raynolds1st March 2016
