The 2009 La Chapelle has a soaring, complex, complete nose of blackberries, dark chocolate, white pepper, and still some floral character. The palate is silky and mouth-filling: there’s an astonishing concentration here, but it’s worn lightly. Already stunning, this is a wine that is sure to go for another half century or more. It’s a true legend: and at this price, it offers value for money.
