2006 Louis Jadot Clos Vougeot Grand Cru RP--93

Robert Parker: 93 Points
Wine Advocate #186 Dec 2009 David Schildknecht 93 Drink: 2009 - 2019 $79-$100 (120) The Jadot 2006 Clos Vougeot � one lot of which was parked in tank for nearly six months while waiting for the other to finally undergo malo � exhibits an unusually dark color for its collection; offers a polished, rich, velvet-textured melange of lightly-cooked black fruits underlain by roasted red meats; and finishes sedately but with memorable savor and length. Lardiere's fears that the wine might end up disjointed have thus proven unfounded, and I suspect that this classic example of top-notch Clos Vougeot will be worth following over the next decade. And since there are a thousand cases of it, quite a few wine lovers can share that experience.
