Hermitage, La Chapelle 1970

Paul Jaboulet Aîné

u. 2x2.5cm, 4x3cm, 2x4cm, 1x4.5cm, 2x5cm, labels heavily bin soiled, 2 missing, 3 bottles with signs of old seepage, 2 corks risen, 1 cork sunken

Deepest, blackest, thickest and youngest colour of the trio 1972, 1971 and 1970. Rich fruity, treacle and molasses nose. Really intoxicating. Heady, smoky and meaty. Enormous fruit and youthful acidity. Has lasted in an extraordinary robust and fresh manner. No overt tannins, just a perfect "balance of power". Elegance and a cherry centre flavour that is riveting. A huge success and a relative surprise. Serena Sutcliffe, MW WA 94

1972、1971及1970三部曲中色澤最深邃、濃厚和年輕的作品。動人的水果和糖蜜香氣，令人陶醉！芳香盈滿，拌以一縷縷煙燻和肉類的香氣。充滿水果香的年輕酒酸。超卓醇厚而清爽的風格。丹寧不明顯，但完美的「力度平衡」。高貴、櫻桃香。施慧娜（葡萄酒大師M.W.）
