The tasting |
|
|
Sustained, garnet colour. |
|
|
| |
|
Lovely aromatic complexity, red fruit and spicy aromas. |
|
|
| |
|
Well balanced on the palate with lovely tannins, well incorporated. This wine develops powerful aromas of red fruit combined with slightly spicy and animal notes (particularly after 5 to 7 years' aging). |
|

|

The estate and the wine |
|

Louis Jadot recently celebrated its 150th anniversary. Louis Henry Denis Jadot founded the House of Louis Jadot in 1859. His son, Louis Jean Baptiste succeeded him in 1900 and continued to develop the business by purchasing numerous vineyards, including Corton Charlemagne and Chevalier-Montrachet Les Demoiselles. This Wine House's estates today cover 154 hectares in the Côte d'Or and the Maconnais and Beaujolais areas. Louis Jadot has long enjoyed an international reputation, a true reference. |

The Pernand-Vergelesses 2005 is a colossus. True to the vintage, the wine is meaty, rich and dense. Aging enriches the tannic frame and reveals sweet spicy notes. Today it amazes us by its intensity and promises us the best for the future. |

|
Traditional vinification, alcoholic fermentation in vats, one year's aging in oak casks before bottling. |
