Louis Jadot
Clos Vougeot Grand Cru Pinot Noir
Deep dark tawny. Hot nose. Notes of cherry kirsch, moist dark soil, some wood and some rhubarb. Strong and powerful in the mouth. Lots of fruit with low acidity. Alcohol is noteworthy. One dimensional in its delivery. Typical for the vintage. Ok at best.

Apr 19th, 2021Dark ruby, barely translucent. Ripe, exotic nose. Black cherry, moist dark soil, some menthol and some raspberries. Masculine and medicinal in the mouth. Has some power. Rounds out with several hours of air. Liked this more than I thought I would.

Nov 29th, 2020Last week was a combo of 4th Friday and Open That Bottle Night on back to back nights. Needless to say, the lineup between both days was full of heavy hitters, so I’m only posting standout bottles.
I agree with other comments that this would be a good bridge from Cali/OR to burgundy. The fruit here is still quite ripe and powerful, highlighting the warm vintage. Darker profile compared to the Laurent Mazis-Chambertin...blackberries, black cherries, blueberry fig, violets, and espresso aromatics. Less acidity than the other, and more plum. I imagine the flavor profile will stay here for quite a while, but I don’t think it’s improving.

Jan 27th, 2019Pleasant dark fruit on the aromatics. Green fruit and medicinal on the palate. 2011 Vougeot from Jadot. Mediocre. This tastes more like a borgogne rouge.
