Note di degustazione
(just 24 barrels produced in 2003, compared to 38 in 2004) Pineapple, lime, wet stone and hawthorn aromas, with hints of nuts, vanilla, earth and spices; some oakiness yet to be integrated. Superconcentrated, penetrating and backward, with very intense pineapple and crushed stone flavors. This has terrific lemony, stony cut and an inexorable slow-building finish that's quite austere today. The wine comes across as more oaky early because it began with more malic acidity, Lardiere explains, adding that he believes this wine needs at least ten years of bottle aging "before we can understand it," and that it will last longer than the Chevalier-Montrachet.

The intense mineral aromas of the 2003 Corton-Charlemagne (white) lead to a medium-bodied, seamless core of fruit. Silky-textured, it offers flavors reminiscent of grilled minerals, oak spices, and crisp pears. This fresh, well-structured effort is a candidate for drinking between 2008 and 2016+.

A subtle background hint of wood spice frames the baked green apple and pear fruit aromas as well as the powerful, rich and robust flavors that do a slow build from the mid-palate to the explosive finish that is almost painfully intense. This is blessed with massive amounts of dry extract if not great elegance and I do like the purity. Allen Meadows, Burghound, Jul01,2005.

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.
