Paul Jaboulet Hermitage La Chapelle 2006 750ML - (Pre-arrival)

Vinous 93-96

"Wonderfully expansive bouquet of raspberry, cherry and creme de mure, complicated by smoky bacon, incense and Asian spices. Supple and sweet, with palate-staining red and dark fruit flavors complemented by mocha, truffle and black olive. The red fruit builds exponentially through the mineral-drenched, sappy finish. Offers captivating clarity and depth, in addition to outstanding complexity and persistence."-Josh Raynolds

Jeb Dunnuck 92

"From an underrated vintage in the Rhône, the 2006 Hermitage La Chapelle is a beautiful, supple, layered wine that checks in behind the all-time greats yet unquestionably matches or surpasses most of the later 1990 and early 2000 vintages. Revealing a translucent ruby hue as well as a classic La Chapelle nose of smoked darker fruits, roasted meats, ground pepper, soy, and some classic Hermitage leather and obvious minerality, it’s medium to full-bodied, round, wonderfully textured, and balanced. It's fully mature today, and certainly won't be getting any better, but it has another 10-15 years of longevity."-Jeb Dunnuck
