Hermitage La Chapelle Jaboulet 1995 is a red wine from the steep, granitic slopes of the Hermitage hill, with fruit drawn mainly from Le Méal and Les Bessards. The vintage produced structured, ageworthy wines, defined by firm tannins and moderate ripeness. Aromas of blackberry, smoked meat and tapenade mingle with graphite, spice and dried herbs. The palate is powerful yet disciplined, its dense fruit framed by a mineral backbone and persistent acidity. Oak influence is well absorbed, lending polish without sweetness. In double magnum, the wine has evolved with restraint, retaining freshness and layered aromatic complexity. Available here in magnum.

Dark ruby colour and it seems young and concentrated both visually and on the aromatics. Dark, cool blue fruits, grilled cedar and campfire smoke, cold ash, lovely character. Firm tannic architecture, could benefit from 30 minutes in a carafe or just leave it in your glass for a while. This feels to me like it is on the plateau and not going anywhere, and you might just strike it lucky with a great bottle at the right time. Gerard Jaboulet and his brother Jacques were owners and winemakers. Gerard Jaboulet and his brother Jacques owner and winemaker.Jane Anson27th August 2025

A saturated purple/plum color is accompanied by gamy, blackberry, and smoked meat aromas. While this wine is rich and full-bodied, the question mark reflects its gritty, astringent tannin and austere personality. It is a large-scaled, boldly-flavored, but ferociously tannic La Chapelle. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2035.Robert Parker26th June 2000
