"Beautiful colour of a young red. The nose is relatively ripe and conjures up perfectly ripe fruit (sloe, fig). Lovely silky, elegant style on the palate, ripe aromas and a melted, harmonious impression on the finish."
yr. 1990 Tom Cannavan:
89 of 100 Points.
"Tom Cannavan" has rated the wine "Paul Jaboulet Aine Domaine de Thalabert Crozes-Hermitage" from the vintage 1990 on 01.01.1999 with 89 of 100 points.
"(1999) Medium to pale ruby. Very concentrated Porty nose. Full of sweet black fruit which is slightly syrupy. Palate is firm, with quite high acidity and good tannins. In the mouth the fruit is layered, with mulberries and raspberries then an earthy, dark, gamey quality. Though it's not a hugely complex wine the fruit is deeply layered and it is drinking extremely well. It is mature but should easily hold for several years."

"Tom Cannavan" has rated the wine "Paul Jaboulet Aine Domaine de Thalabert Crozes-Hermitage" from the vintage 1986 on 01.01.1998 with 88 of 100 points.
"(1998) Blackish centre with rich, ruby rim. Tarry, blackcurrant nose. Some sweet cherry fruit on the palate with obvious peppery notes. Good tannins and succulent acidity leading to a long, pure finish. Absolutely à point , but will keep a few years I guess."

"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Paul Jaboulet Aine Domaine de Thalabert Crozes-Hermitage" from the vintage 2007 on 01.01.2011 with 91 of 100 points.
"Domaine de Thalabert is a historic name in Crozes-Hermitage, and the 2007 does its heritage proud, offering a dark look at Syrah through a lens of espresso, black olive and plummy fruit. It's full bodied and built for several years in the cellar, yet turns velvety on the finish even today."
yr. 2005 Wine Enthusiast:
88 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Paul Jaboulet Aine Domaine de Thalabert Crozes-Hermitage" from the vintage 2005 on 01.07.2010 with 88 of 100 points.
"One of the most famous Crozes-Hermitage bottlings, the 2005 Domaine de Thalabert is a little tough and unyielding right now, but shows promise in its persistent, peppery finish. It starts off with gamy, leathery notes and hickory smoke, all backed by crisp blackberry fruit and ample tannin. Try after 2012."
yr. 2001 Wine Enthusiast:
85 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Paul Jaboulet Aine Domaine de Thalabert Crozes-Hermitage" from the vintage 2001 on 01.01.2005 with 85 of 100 points.
"Seems a little disjointed at this stage of its development, with components that don't seem completely integrated: caramel, cherries, pepper and dusty earth notes. Supple mouthfeel bodes well, and if the pieces here come together, this rating may look stingy five years from now."
yr. 2000 Wine Enthusiast:
83 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Paul Jaboulet Aine Domaine de Thalabert Crozes-Hermitage" from the vintage 2000 on 01.01.2003 with 83 of 100 points.
"Forward and lively, with jammy berry aromas. Quite lean and zippy in the mouth, with tangy huckleberry and cranberry flavors. Lacks nuance and character but goes fast and furious on the red fruit. Probably too tart for its own good."
yr. 1999 Wine Enthusiast:
89 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Paul Jaboulet Aine Domaine de Thalabert Crozes-Hermitage" from the vintage 1999 on 01.01.2002 with 89 of 100 points.
"Jaboulet Aîné has the best-known estate in Crozes-Hermitage, on the flat land to the south of the hill of Hermitage. The 1999, a top year for Crozes, is deep, dark, almost black in color. It is a generous, rounded wine, smooth, rich, with a cocktail of spices, new wood flavors and black fruits. The tannins are there, but are soft, ripe and already accessible."
yr. 1996 Wine Enthusiast:
90 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Paul Jaboulet Aine Domaine de Thalabert Crozes-Hermitage" from the vintage 1996 on 01.01.1999 with 90 of 100 points.
"Rich and complex, this young wine displays the expected brazen youth as well as sophistication beyond its years. Density busts out of the glass. Intense black fruits. Really dynamite."
yr. 2003 Wine Enthusiast:
90 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Paul Jaboulet Aine Domaine de Thalabert Crozes-Hermitage" from the vintage 2003 with 90 of 100 points.
"A fine example of Jaboulet's Thalabert, the 2003 features plenty of ripeness without becoming jammy or overdone. It's round and mouthfilling, with supple tannins and a creamy texture, while the flavors are herbal and peppery but also meaty and dark, featuring notes of black olive and espresso. Drink now?2015."
