Tasting notes
This was a great showing from the 2000 Musigny Grand Cru (Domaine Louis Jadot), a beautiful wine that bursts with aromas of candied peel, juicy cherries, dark chocolate and dried rose petals. On the palate, it's full-bodied, ample and velvety, with a layered core that's still framed by some fine but firm structuring tannins, showing its pedigree above all on the strikingly long, intense finish.

Full ruby-red. Raspberry, woodsmoke, flinty minerality and subtle suggestions of torrefaction on the nose. Lush on entry, then impressively silky in the middle, with captivating, highly aromatic berry and mineral flavors. Finishes long and subtle, with very suave tannins. It hard to fault this wine, yet I found myself wondering if the 100% new oak partly masked the terroir
About the producer
Louis Jadot is arguably the most consistent négociant house in Burgundy. It has managed to straddle both the entry-level and fine wine market, while retaining respect in both.
