I was going through my La Chapelle section today and my eyes got stuck on this 1999 - bottle looked absolutely pristine and I decided it was a perfect age to drink. Cork was in great condition and the wine was powerful and youthful with no signs of oxidation. Could have kept the bottle for a few more years, but it was probably perfect today. All the complex leathery earthy goodness you expect from this wine was there. — a month ago

Blend of 55% Grenache, 40% Syrah with 5% other varieties. Ruby red color with aromas of red berry fruits with spicy notes. On the palate juicy flavors of black cherry and raspberry, adding mild spice notes. Fine tannins, good balance with acidity, medium finish ending with fruit and spice. Consistent from year to year. Good value! — 7 months ago

Some went into the lamb shanks and we drank the rest.
Loved the berry in the nose and on the palate. Incredible an hour after opening--soft and rich, tannins adding character without stepping on the taste buds. — 5 months ago

Muscat not my favorite varietal but here it really shines: tension, focused, with that wide, flowery & confectionery nose, on palate mango, lemon curd, & a gorgeous sweetness. .375 ml bottle. — 9 months ago

Beautiful glass filling nose with flowers and tar followed by dark bramble, smoke, leather and liquorice. Pretty chewy tannines and a long finish. Wine got very divergent notes and ratings on ct but I am liking this a lot. No blockbuster over extracted powerhouse but freshness and complexity. Very glad to have 5 more. — 3 months ago

Deep golden in color with more body and intensity than a Chardonnay. Asian apple and some apricot on the palate. Neutral oak provides umami as well. This wine is in it’s ideal drinking window! — 4 months ago
