1997 Hermitage la Chapelle, Paul Jabolet Aine

A deep ruby dry wine with pronounced nose of licorice, blueberry, smoke, earth and trace of red fruits on nose. It has medium body, soft medium tannin and low to medium acidity. On palate, only berry fruits and earthy flavours are left with medium earthy finish. (90)
