La Chapelle


The Jaboulet table at the Ficofi/Kaesler tasting. The late 1990's vintages of La Chappelle ( at least the ones that I have tried, 98 in particular) have been fairly forgettable. I quite liked the 1991, drinking well, not an acclaimed vintage but sometimes drinkability is an under-rated quality. No notes on this table, the speed tasting had started to slip into overdrive.

  1. The 2005 is back to being a nice sort of wine. GW

  2. Funny, I still remember that day we tasted the 98 in Sydney at the Geoff Merrill Henley tasting. I've heard that the latest vintages are back on form again, which is great to see.
