Wine Advocate # 129
Jun 2000 Robert Parker 96 Drink: 2010 - 2050
This fabulous, blockbuster has been totally unevolved since bottling, but at the Jaboulet tasting, it was beginning to reveal some of its formidable potential. A saturated opaque purple color is followed by aromas of cassis, minerals, and hot bricks/wood fire. Super-ripe and full-bodied, with a massive mid-section, teeth-staining extract, and mouth-searing tannin, it is a monster-sized La Chapelle. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2050

Rhone Book # B3
Jan 1997 Robert Parker 97 Drink: 2002 - 2030
The 1989 La Chapelle is phenomenal. The opaque black/ruby color and the huge bouquet of coffee, hickory wood, jammy cassis, minerals, and spices are the stuff of legends. In the mouth the wine is massive, with layer upon layer of unctuous, highly extracted, and superripe fruit. The finish offers an extraordinary explosion of fruit, glycerin, and strong but ripe tannin. My instincts suggest the 1989 will reach maturity several years before the 1990. This is a monumental wine that attests to the glory of this renowned and historic appellation. Anticipated maturity: 2002-2030. Last tasted 11/96.

Wine Journal Neal Martin 95 Drink 2008 - 2020
A deep ruby/garnet core. The nose wafts from the glass and immediately seduces you to its charms: Maraschino cherry, redcurrant jelly, a touch of kirsch and spice. Superb delineation and focus. The palate is medium- to full-bodied, beautifully balanced, sweet and sensuous, lovely silky texture, notes of cooked meat, earth, saddle-leather, briary with a harmonious, mocha-tinged finish. A gorgeous La Chapelle, this superior to the bottle encountered last year and whilst it does not have the turbo charged engine of the 1990, it has the purr of a Bentley. Drink now-2020+ Tasted January 2008.
