Note di degustazione
This saturated and dark colored wine, with its extraordinarily spicy nose of sweet red and black fruits, sent me soaring. This massive, intense, broad-shouldered, masculine, structured, and chewy wine is crammed with super-ripe, rich, and layered blackberries, cassis, licorice, earth, and Asian spices. As if that were not enough, its dense fruit comes roaring back after expectoration, lingering on the palate for nearly a minute. This is an extraordinary Clos Vougeot! Projected maturity: 2006-2014. Bravo! to Jacques Lardiere and Pierre-Henri Gagey. Importer: Kobrand, Inc., New York, NY; (212) 490-9300.

Floral, black cherry and licorice aromas. Dense and muscular in the mouth, with intense flavors of dark berries and licorice. Not yet fleshy but very persistent-in fact, one of the longest '96s at this address. Should unfold slowly. Very impressive Clos Vougeot.
Informazioni sul produttore
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.
