jadot 2001 gevrey clos st.jacques
I was a bit concerned before I even poured the wine – the cork was a nightmare to remove; welded into the neck, the second half (!) needing both ah-so and screwpull-worm in the manner of a 1970s wine – except I was having to tug more. 2001 Louis Jadot,… Read More
2008 jadot bourgogne chardonnay
I already pcked my ‘house white‘ for 2010, but this is close in quality yet with a big advantage – it’s 60% of the cost. Hmm, next year could be tough! 2008 Louis Jadot, Bourgogne Chardonnay… Read More
jadot 98 chambertin clos de bèze
Louis Jadot 1998 Chambertin Clos de Bèze Opened in the cellar about 3 hours before pouring and brought it up to the kitchen about 1 hour before pouring – looks like that was too soon! 1998 Louis Jadot, Chambertin Clos de Bèze Medium, medium-plus ruby-red –… Read More

Louis Jadot Vosne-Romanée 1er 2002 Petits Monts As I opened a Vosne, I have an excuse to add a few photos (below) from a promenade of sorts I made in the village last week. As you can see, Louis-Michel Liger-Belair’s ‘I’m the only crane in the village’ crown has gone… Read More

jadot 2004 vosne-romanée
If I didn’t get on all that well with the 06 Jadot Bourgogne Chardonnay, this is much more interesting. It’s actually about 20% more expensive than my highly rated Mugneret-Gibourg or Albert Bichot 04 Vosnes and both of those offer a more compelling current drinking experience – it won’t… Read More
2006 jadot bourgogne chardonnay
A wine that shows the difficulty of those that picked just a little later in this vintage – given the size of this cuvée, it would be no surprise if a significant proportion of the mix was picked just a little later than optimum. I note that the price… Read More
jadot 2005 bourgogne chardonnay
2005 Louis Jadot, Bourgogne Chardonnay 2002 was fantastic and 2004 was very good, so I bought a six-pack of 2005 blind! The nose is pretty classic for this bottling with faintly oaky, sweet depth, pear fruit and some higher tones – eventually a little minerality too in… Read More
jadot 04 bourgogne chardonnay
There’s only one thing that I really dislike about this wine – the cork – or should I say the cork ‘amalgam’. It’s purely empirical, but I find a very high taint rate from similar ‘cheap’ closures – no problem with this bottle though. 2004 Louis Jadot, Bourgogne… Read More
