1999 M. Chapoutier Ermitage Le Méal

Community Tasting Note

88 Points

Sunday, March 12, 2023 - March Rhônes (Chicago, IL): Served double blind. Meaty and fading, but clearly something from the 80s given the browning fruit. Not much oak influence here, but this definitely feels like it's on the decline. A bit of shock on the reveal as 1. this didn't have as much awful oak as Chapoutier tends to have, and 2. this tastes at least 15 years older than it is.
