1999 Domaine Louis Jadot, Gevrey-Chambertin Premier Cru, Estournelles-Saint-Jacques 1x750ml

Vinous 91

Bright dark red. Black raspberry, coffee and roasted oak aromas. Concentrated, sweet and silky, with its very suave fruit flavors given shape by harmonious, ripe acidity. Really seamless wine, finishing with sweet oak tones and excellent persistence. Seemed to close down in the glass. Still, this wine shows more texture and density today than the Clos Saint-Jacques.
