The estate and the wine |
|
|
Rising to the top of the great houses of the Rhone Valley, Paul Jaboulet Aîné is reaching the pinnacle of French viticulture.
The Frey family, which already owns Château La Lagune and Champagne Billecart-Salmon, keeps a watchful eye over this gem of 80 hectares of vines, including the mythical terroir of Hermitage La Chapelle. |

|
| |
|
A model of refinement, the 2020 Red Hermitage La Maison Bleue brings Syrah to its highest level of expression. The perfect maturity, the balsamic, pepper and violet notes on the nose, enchant with purity and finesse. The material unfolds a palate of great dimension, with volume, tenderness and a completed concentration. A masterpiece of finesse and power, a great bottle to be carefully aged. Rated 94/100 by Parker. |
