2007 Louis Jadot, Chambertin Grand Cru 6x75cl

Vinous – 91-94

Red-ruby. Superripe aromas of black cherry and smoked meat; smells concentrated! Then sweet and quite penetrating on the palate, with a slightly tart and reserved character to its fruit, due in large part to the wine’s rather powerful acidity. Finishes very pure and long, with plenty of flesh. This reminded me of a much more suave version of the Latricieres. [Stephen Tanzer, 03/01/2009]
