Good full red. Distinctly cool and rather oaky nose is dominated by mocha and menthol. Supple and fine-grained in texture but quite dry, with a note of raspberry fruit emerging grudgingly with air to leaven the wine's medicinal menthol character. This needs more time in barrel to come into focus.

Louis Jadot
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.
