Paul Jaboulet-Aîné : La Chapelle 2012

The 2012 La Chapelle Blanc from the House of Paul Jaboulet-Ainé is the output of 100% Marsanne - from vines that are about 40 or 50 years old - grown on the terraced parcel Maison Blanche. This wine presents a brilliant pale yellow robe with green reflections. The nose offers a wonderful expression of freshness of citrus, like lime, with floral notes, like honeysuckle, and a lovely minerality. On the palate, this 2012 Chapelle Blanc from Paul Jaboulet-Ainé is an incredible Hermitage white, pure and elegant, always with minerality, and with a precise and persistent finish. It is a white to age.
