Clos-Saint-Denis Grand Cru--Vintage 2005
Côte de Nuits. French-bottled: Louis Jadot
Tasting note: Cherry, raspberry and resin also dominate the nose of the 2005 Clos St.-Denis, with almond and cherry pit notes emerging with air. Rich but clear in the mouth, this displays formidable tannins, yet at the same time an emerging creaminess. Pure fresh fruit allied to low-toned smoky, stony notes inform one of the longest finishes of any of Jadot's wines. This surely has more than a decade of aging potential during which it can be expected to pick up further complexities and nuances, though here, too, a good bet seems to be that it will harden in the short run. (92-94 points) David Schildknecht, Wine Advocate #171, June 2007
