The 2013 Hermitage la Petite Chapelle is more forward and approachable than the grand vin, giving up lots of granite-induced minerality, smoked earth, bouquet garni and assorted dark fruits in its medium to full-bodied, nicely concentrated, layered style. Coming from a mix of parcels and aged 15-18 months in roughly 20% new French oak, its should evolve gracefully for 10-15 years.<br/>Caroline Frey and winemaker Jacques Desvernois continue to make a bevy of high quality wines from throughout the Rhône Valley. Both their 2014s and 2013s show the vintage character nicely, and the wines show fresher, more elegant profiles without sacrificing too much density and depth. I’d like a touch more flesh and texture in a few of these latest releases, but there’s no denying the high quality coming from this estate today. One noteworthy change here is that after decades of working with Frederick Wildman & Sons, Paul Aîné Jaboulet will now be represented in the US by New York based Skurnik Wines. Hopefully this will lead to broader distribution and more access to these wines as there’s tons of value and quality in the lineup.

Features a slightly taut frame, with singed cedar and balsamic notes clipping the wings of the red currant, cherry paste and plum fruit flavors. Tar and sage details line the finish. There's some depth here and good ripeness for the vintage, but not the volume or range of the best wines from this appellation. Drink now through 2023. 200 cases imported. –JM

A lighter La Chapelle with blueberry and crushed pepper character. Medium to full body, fine tannins and a fresh finish. Drink now.

Domaine Paul Jaboulet Aîné
Inmitten der Hermitage-Hänge begann im Jahr 1834 Antoine Jaboulet, sein fruchtbares Land zu bestellen, und er setzte alles daran, aus seinen sorgfältig gepflegten Reben herausragende Weine zu machen. Seit damals sind viele Generationen seinen Weg mit alljährlichem Erfolg weitergegangen, bis sie schließlich 2006 das Anwesen an die Familie Frey verkauften. Und die neuen Eigentümer, selber mit einem tiefverwurzelten Weinhintergrund und Besitzer des Château La Lagune in Bordeaux, halten Jaboulets Leidenschaft für höchste Qualität weiter aufrecht. Unter Leitung von Caroline Frey wurden Kellerei und Weinberge einigen Erneuerungen unterzogen, wovon die Umstellung auf nachhaltige Bewirtschaftung sicherlich die ausschlaggebendste war. Die knapp 121 Hektar über das Rhônetal verstreute Rebfläche beherbergt auf ihren nördlichen Parzellen in den Côtes du Rhône die Rebsorte Syrah, während die Grundstücke mit Roussanne, Marsanne und Viognier dem Weißwein vorbehalten sind. Das Flaggschiff von Jaboulet, der Hermitage La Chapelle, ist der großartigste Wein, der jemals auf diesem Weingut produziert wurde, dicht gefolgt vom Hermitage La Petite Chapelle.
