2005 Wine - Red Louis Jadot

2005 Louis Jadot Echézeaux Grand Cru (Burgundy - Côte de Nuits, France)
Wine - Red $249.99 (750mL)

Between the villages of Vosne-Romanee and Flagey-Echezeaux, there are 7 Grand Cru's of which the Echezeaux is one of them. The wines here are intense, full and complex full of rich, ripe berry flavors and earthy, woodsy overtones with an elegant, long and distinctive finish. This is extremely limited in availability.

Good deep red-ruby. Ineffable perfume of raspberry, rose petal, minerals and licorice. Juicy, racy and quite fine, with lovely subtle sweetness and lift. Pungently spicy, perfumed wine with a very long, vibrant finish. Built to age but this is very sexy today.

David Schildknecht, The Wine Advocate

Rating: 93

The Jadot 2005 Echezeaux is sweetly-scented with cherry, cranberry, honey and black tea. Lithe and juicy, sweetly-fruited and pure, this illustrates the missions of elegance, elevation and refinement accruing to grand cru, finishing with bright, salt-tinged fruit wreathed in floral and tea-like perfume. One can only wonder whether a darker or more carnal side ? or tannins that are presently not in evidence ? will assert themselves with time. This was especially slow to finish malo, and Jacques Lardiere insists it is not showing its full potential today, expecting to bottle it later than most of the other wines as well.
