Note di degustazione
(from purchased wine) Medium red. Knockout nose is sauvage and noble at the same time, combining wild red berries, dried flowers and minerals. Suave on entry, then perfumed and sharply delineated in the middle palate, with enticing mineral and floral notes giving the berry flavors superb lift. Finishes very long and aromatic, with terrific spicy length. Very cerebral wine, as good a sample of a wine not vinified by Lardiere as I tasted here in November. Lardiere told me Jadot began buying from a second supplier of Grands-Echezeaux in 2003, and this estate uses Jadot's barrels. (Readers may recall that the 2003 Grands-Echezeaux was a knockout.)

A very spicy nose evidences notes of clove, anise, soy and smoke as well as blue fruit and violet aromas, all trimmed in generous wood that can also be found on the rich, full, detailed, lush and layered big-bodied flavors that are more powerful than those of the Ech and exhibit an intensity that does a slow but sure build to an explosive finish. I like this a lot as the quality of the raw materials is first rate and while it's presently carrying more wood than I can get excited about, it shouldn't be a problem absorbing it in time.

Louis Jadot is arguably the most consistent négociant house in Burgundy. It has managed to straddle both the entry-level and fine wine market, while retaining respect in both.
