Sourced from some of Hermitage’s finest parcels and shaped by a long, careful élevage, it is a wine of remarkable depth, structure, and elegance with strong historical ties to the little Saint-Christophe chapel that gave it its name.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMakuprofiili\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the glass, La Chapelle 1989 shows a brilliant, polished ruby-red color, still striking for its age. The nose is layered and complex, opening with dark berries such as blackberry, blackcurrant, and blueberry, then unfolding into spicy notes, subtle oak, and the kind of savory complexity that only mature Syrah can deliver.\n\nOn the palate, the wine is full-bodied, concentrated, and beautifully textured, with rich fruit balanced by firm tannins and impressive structure. The finish is long and persistent, showing both power and harmony. With its concentration and depth, this vintage has excellent aging pedigree, though it is also a compelling bottle to enjoy now if properly stored.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eViininvalmistus\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLa Chapelle is made from Syrah grown on some of the finest plots in Hermitage, including Les Bressards, Les Greffieux, Le Méal, and Les Rocoules, where vines are between 40 and 60 years old. Yields are extremely low at 10–18 hl\/ha, and the grapes are harvested by hand and transported in small 20 kg crates to preserve freshness and avoid oxidation. Each parcel is vinified separately, then blended according to the character of the vintage. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, followed by malolactic fermentation and 15–18 months of aging in the producer’s historic VINEUM cellars, with around 20% new oak.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRuoka \u0026amp; tarjoilu\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is a classic wine for rich, savory dishes such as game, poultry, beef tournedos, or sweetbreads. It is best served at around 16–18°C, and decanting is recommended, especially given the wine’s age, to help it open and show its full aromatic complexity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTuottaja\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePaul Jaboulet Aîné is one of the most respected names in the Northern Rhône, with a long-standing reputation for producing benchmark wines from Hermitage and beyond.
