Château La Chapelle Des Tours

La Chapelle Hermitage Syrah

I was going through my La Chapelle section today and my eyes got stuck on this 1999 - bottle looked absolutely pristine and I decided it was a perfect age to drink. Cork was in great condition and the wine was powerful and youthful with no signs of oxidation. Could have kept the bottle for a few more years, but it was probably perfect today. All the complex leathery earthy goodness you expect from this wine was there. — 3 months ago

It was a really nicely aged vintage champagne. And probably better the next day!

Domaine Trapet Père & Fils

Chapelle-Chambertin Grand Cru Pinot Noir 2013

Dark rubi robe, nose of dark cherries, plum, top soil and asian spices. Dense and mineral in the mouth, medium bodied, very reserved and only showing its game after a couple of hours. This is a very classy grand cru that is accessible now after decanting but has lots of potential. Top stuff. — 10 months ago

Château Peybonhomme-les Tours

Côtes De Blaye Merlot Blend 2017

Plummy and almost a little smoky. Love the texture. It became a much softer wine after aerating, and on the second day had lost most of its bite. — 5 years ago

Domaine De La Chapelle Des Bois

"Grand Pré" Fleurie Gamay 2015

A nice Beaujolais from a vintage that I don’t usually love compared to 2014/2016. Definitely better with an hour or so in a decanter to let the tannins integrate a bit more. Dark purple in the glass - darker than expected. Nice cherry aromas. Still could resolve a bit more on the finish but with a slight chill is nice. — 6 years ago

Totally agree on the vintages. 14s were killer. 15s just too much heat

Château La Mission Haut-Brion

La Chapelle de la Mission Haut-Brion Pessac-Léognan Red Bordeaux Blend 2016

Quite bright medium ruby , ruby pink rim . Quite elegant and reserved , some red cherry, violet , summer fruits , scorched earth , touch of spice . On the palate quite elegant also , summer fruits, blackberry , blackcurrant , red plum . Good balanced acidity , herbal touches on the medium length , saline tinged finish . Quite polished but still grippy tannins . This is showing well , especially with food , but has a relatively long future , from now and over the next 5-10 years. A very successful second wine . — 7 months ago

Réserve Côtes du Rhône White Rhone Blend 2012

Fresh grape, hay, anise, white flowers and a touch of peach, this is a very flowery nose, full of promise and intriguing. The palate is very dense: wide, long with a grip, a soft touch, a bit of a round thing in mid palate. Peach and and anise all along the acid backbone. A very long finish with a bit of peach and some freshness. In the end there is an everlasting layer of anise and hay. This is very good! — 5 years ago
