Note di degustazione
Only lightly floral on the nose. At this stage it seems a bit simple fter the Bienvenues. Very introvert and tight. Fine alpine aromas. Very chewy. Stringy even. This may well gain greatness but the early sample is not one of the most convincing. Terribly tight and a nervous wreck really. (JR)

This hasn't budged much from my initial review in early 2007 as there is still discreet wood framing a reserved yet ultra elegant white flower and intensely mineral nose that merges seamlessly into fine, precise and vividly stony flavors that culminate in a clean, crisp and bone dry finish that displays spectacular length. This has all of the superb intensity of a young Demoiselles and is clearly built to age and as such should provide at least 9 to 10 years of upside development. One thing that has become more apparent with a few years of bottle age is how concentrated this is as the amount of dry extract present is genuinely impressive and 2005 is in my view the most powerful vintage of this wine in some time. Note that I have also added two years to the expected maturity estimate as this is evolving quite slowly. www.burghound.com, April 2010, Drink 2017+

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.
