Paul Jaboulet Ainé Hermitage Pied de la Côte 1995

[Thraz]

I have been working like crazy for a few months, I still had a bit of wine but no time to post. So here goes, in no particular order, and from memory only, sometimes fairly distant.

This wine tastes like it was very good at some point. It still tastes like Hermitage, but its peak was probably five or seven years ago. I have a couple left, I have to hurry. Also, terrible marketing. It says right on the bottle that the grapes are La Chapelle refuse. It may be a fine refuse pedigree, but it's a confusing message. $25.

That does sound funny when they put it that way.
