Description
2018 vintage Chateau de la Chapelle shocked judges with a “Best in Show” - “Platinum Trophy” & “97/100” at the prestigious Decanter World Wine Awards (DWWA) 2021. It’s results placing it in the Top 50 wines of the world from 17,000 wines tasted. This 2020 made another big statement with 95/100 & Gold at DWWA + 2 other Gold Medals. 18,244 wines reviewed by Decanter Judges with just 3.72% awarded Gold. The Decanter judges say... “Spicy nose displaying sweet aromas of dark plums, chocolate and attractive hints of floral notes. Warm and deep on the palate, showing a firm tannic structure.” We bought direct ex Chateau exclusively for Fine Wine Delivery customers in NZ… cutting out the middleman and bringing you DWWA 95/100 & Triple Gold Right Bank Bordeaux Red (85% Merlot & 15% Cabernet) at a staggering $24.99. Its mouth filling fruit and smoothness throughout the palate will win over the palates of any Merlot Cabernet lover. You’d be happy paying more for it… but you don’t have to!
Smells
Classic aromas of ripe blackcurrants and black Doris plums underpinned by smoky, cedar and spice notes.
Tastes
Deep blackberry colour, excellent fruit weight and concentration, suggestive of very low yields producing perfectly ripe fruit. Blackcurrant and blackberry flavours feature strongly on the palate supported by dark chocolate, coffee and toasty vanilla. True to Merlot and Cabernet the tannins are chewy yet supple, framing the fruit, leading into a long, deliciously warm satisfying finish. Decant 30-minutes or so before serving and enjoy with beef, lamb, or venison.
We taste, rate & guarantee every wine we sell.
