1990 Paul Jaboulet Aîné Hermitage La Chapelle
Community Tasting Note
MC2 Wines Likes this wine:
Tuesday, January 17, 2023 - Commanderie des Costes du Rhone - Spring 2023 Kick-off (Gabriel Kruether): I've often said that this is a wine that never quite shows as well as I expect it to. This though was probably the best bottle I've had of it. Again very vibrant and bright and a bit more depth of character than the '83 or the '88 and darker fruits and a hint of the sanguine and just drinking very nicely.
