I'm more of a lurker here than a poster, but saw this in my hotel and wanted to share. Is this what La Chapelle is good for these days?
Sangria anyone?

Maybe the Sprite helps balance the acidity:
"The 1996 Hermitage La Chapelle is immensely impressive. The acidity is high. The color is black/purple, and the wine is extremely concentrated, but unevolved and impossible to penetrate. It could turn out like the 1983 and never develop as well as its early promise suggests. Nevertheless, it is a massive effort with extraordinary concentration, but the high acidity requires a minimum of 10 years of cellaring. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2025."

If the bartender is to be believed (?) it's not a joke.
