Hermitage, La Chapelle 1964 Paul Jaboulet Aîné
u. 2x3cm, 1x5cm, 9 levels into the neck, heavily bin-soiled and scuffed labels, neck labels, and capsules, heavily bin-soiled bottles, 8 slightly sunken corks, 1 slightly raised cork, 2 bottles show slightly lighter color

Deep molasses colour. Vegetation and smoke on the nose, with cassis, cinnamon and cloves. So fresh on the palate, with excellent fruit and aromatic tannins. Supple and easy but with marked character and personality. Pure delight in 2011. And in 2012, it was all rich, mouth-coating molasses. Serena Sutcliffe, MW WA 93
