James SucklingProduct Information:
Robert Parker: This brilliant dark ruby/purple-colored 1979 still
retains a youthful vigor. Spicy, with plenty of smoke, dried herb,
pepper, and cassis fruit, this outstanding, smoky, gamy (smoked
meats galore), full-bodied La Chapelle reveals some angularity and
rough tannin in the finish, but all other signs are positive. While
it does not possess the weight of the biggest, most muscular
vintages of La Chapelle, it is an exciting wine.
