The 2012 Hermitage La Chapelle Blanc from Paul Jaboulet Aîné evokes refined luminosity in its pale golden hue and unfolds with delicate apricot blossom and pear blossom lifted by lemon‑verbena freshness and a whisper of crushed flint and sandalwood. It weaves a graceful line of vibrant acidity and elegant texture with a subtly lees‑inflected mineral finish that lingers with finesse.
