Since taking over the estate as an oenologist in 2006, Caroline Frey?s meticulous care and attention to quality in the vineyard, aided by a steady shift to organics and biodynamics, has led the once-struggling estate to a tremendous return to form in recent years, spearheading a renaissance that has seen the return of world class winemaking and critical acclaim to one of the great estates of the Rhone Valley. The Frey family's revival of the estate has culminated in two consecutive stellar vintages, 2018 and now 2019, a testament to its prowess and reputation. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eVintage: Based on early reviews, the 2019 vintage is set to put its recent predecessors, even the formidable 2018 vintage, in the shade. Matthew Jukes has found the flagship Hermitage La Chapelle 2019 to be quite literally off the scale at 20 points out of 20, comparing it to the sensational 1990, one of the greatest vintages of all time. With great ageing potential and quality that potentially trumps the phenomenal 2018 vintage, Paul Jaboulet Aine 2019 promises to be a stunning addition to the cellars of fine wine lovers and collectors. 2019 is a paradoxical year of extremes with an abnormally hot and dry growing season by historical standards that started off with pockets of spring hail and frost. Fortunately, temperatures were not excessive and well-timed and beneficial rains in late August and early September freshened the vineyards and kept the acidity levels sound. Despite the hot and rain-bereft year, 2019 produced wines with real freshness and detail, and many producers achieved a perfect ripeness that adds aromatic complexity to the wines. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"1855 The Bottle Shop Pte Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39974505185344,"sku":"RDFR20192752","price":116.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0564\/7728\/6464\/products\/Paul-Jaboulet-Aine-Cornas-Domaine-de-Saint-Pierre_52c65f71-1b0a-4015-b62e-7285fae3c5ae.jpg?v=1706769651"},{"product_id":"paul-jaboulet-aine-cornas-domaine-de-saint-pierre-2020-750ml","title":"Paul Jaboulet Aine Cornas Domaine de Saint Pierre 2020 750ml","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 54, 136);\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe 2020 Cornas Domaine de Saint Pierre is a medium to full-bodied Syrah with vibrant blackberry, pomegranate, and hibiscus aromas, layered with spice and cedar.

I do a lot of sports,’” she said, assuming that even if she caught it, she wouldn't be hugely affected. But when she contracted the virus, she lost her sense of smell, and she said it was just starting to come back as we tasted through the 2018s and 2019s from Paul Jaboulet Aîné.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eAccording to Frey, in 2018, the vineyards received plenty of rain from March through June, followed by dry, windy conditions, which kept the vines healthy. Harvest began on August 27th and extended through September 25th. \"There's something powerful and pure in 2018,\" she said. \"It's a mix of ’15 (power) and ’16 (purity).\" Referencing the 2018 Domaine de Thalabert, Frey said, \"We have the power and density but not like ’03. The wine is still bringing freshness and balance.\"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe 2019 season was characterized by a cool spring and a slow start to the growing season, but that was followed by intense heat, including 10 days of temperatures that exceeded 40 degrees Celsius (104 degrees Fahrenheit). A major hailstorm struck Crozes-Hermitage in mid-June, leading to extensive crop losses (up to 60%, according to Frey), followed by another, smaller hail event in July that affected parts of Hermitage and Saint-Joseph. Despite those storms, parts of the vineyards still experienced hydric stress, so picking didn't begin until September 11 and concluded on September 27. \"We had smaller berries and thicker skins than in 2018,\" she said. \"We did a very soft extraction—more like an infusion. When we have these levels of richness, we imagine the finish may be unbalanced, but that's not the case.

I do a lot of sports,’” she said, assuming that even if she caught it, she wouldn't be hugely affected. But when she contracted the virus, she lost her sense of smell, and she said it was just starting to come back as we tasted through the 2018s and 2019s from Paul Jaboulet Aîné.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eAccording to Frey, in 2018, the vineyards received plenty of rain from March through June, followed by dry, windy conditions, which kept the vines healthy. Harvest began on August 27th and extended through September 25th. \"There's something powerful and pure in 2018,\" she said. \"It's a mix of ’15 (power) and ’16 (purity).\" Referencing the 2018 Domaine de Thalabert, Frey said, \"We have the power and density but not like ’03.

A major hailstorm struck Crozes-Hermitage in mid-June, leading to extensive crop losses (up to 60%, according to Frey), followed by another, smaller hail event in July that affected parts of Hermitage and Saint-Joseph. Despite those storms, parts of the vineyards still experienced hydric stress, so picking didn't begin until September 11 and concluded on September 27. \"We had smaller berries and thicker skins than in 2018,\" she said. \"We did a very soft extraction—more like an infusion. When we have these levels of richness, we imagine the finish may be unbalanced, but that's not the case. We have length and freshness.\"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eBoth of these vintages are hugely successful at Jaboulet, no doubt because of the team's ability to deal with the hot, dry conditions.

She brought representative barrel samples of the 2018s, plus the bottled 2017s, which we tasted through before dining. This year, Frey was excited to show me the 2017 Côtes du Rhône Parallele 45, which is now made using only organic grapes. At up to two million bottles (red, white and rosé) per year, that's no small achievement. But as always, we spent the most time on the wines produced from the firm's own vineyards, which are all farmed biodynamically. Frey explained that they cannot be certified, as the winery also processes grapes and wines from the négociant operations. The grapes are all destemmed, although she said they will experiment with whole clusters. \"When we did it in 2013, for me it was not OK,\" she said. She has begun doing more pigeage (punching down) in the winery, versus just remontage (pumping over). \"We have good results on the texture—fleshier.\" The glory of Jaboulet is the legendary Hermitage La Chapelle, which is finally reflecting all of the hard work put into the vineyards by the Frey family and the Jaboulet team. \"We still have many things to do,\" said Frey. \"But I think in the past 13 years we've come a long way.\"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"sc-frbSaM fjILMW\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJames Suckling \u003cspan class=\"selectable-text copyable-text\"\u003e|\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(158, 0, 57);\"\u003eJS 98\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePublished: Jul 17, 2019\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"sc-frbSaM fjILMW\"\u003eThe icon is in dangerously seductive form.

Since their arrival, and under Caroline Frey’s leadership, the vineyards have undergone extensive restructuring alongside a full conversion to organic viticulture. This moment now marks a new phase, with Caroline stepping back and Delphine Frey taking over the entire domaine. The transition comes at a time when the broader reconstruction of the house, long underway after decades of drift, is beginning to take clearer contours.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe estate today spans the Northern Rhône’s principal appellations, anchored by 45 hectares at Thalabert and 22.5 hectares on Hermitage, alongside holdings in Saint-Joseph, Cornas, Côte-Rôtie and Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Over the past two decades, the Frey family has narrowed its focus, concentrating its investment in estate vineyards while easing back on merchant activity. All key parcels are now farmed organically and certified as such, with conversions completed between 2009 and 2016. In the cellar, the wines still carry a certain Bordeaux inflection, but this has been moderated in recent vintages: extraction is more measured, élevage more carefully calibrated and site expression more apparent. Reds are largely destemmed, with gentle extraction and élevage in barrels followed by racking to tank, while whites see long pressing and élevage across stainless steel, concrete eggs and oak.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003e2023 is a broadly classical vintage; the fragility of this progress was nonetheless exposed when hail devastated Domaine de Thalabert in Crozes-Hermitage.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"sc-goWbiv loNZbm\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eJancis Robinson \u003cspan class=\"selectable-text copyable-text\"\u003e|\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(158, 0, 57);\"\u003eJR 16.5\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003ePublished: Apr 11, 2026\u003cbr\u003eDrink: 2026-2030\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"sc-goWbiv loNZbm\"\u003eSimple, ripe red fruit on the nose, but the palate is more distinctive with blackberry, peppercorn and meatiness.
