93 David Schildknecht - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

"The Jadot 2006 Clos Vougeot - one lot of which was parked in tank for nearly six months while waiting for the other to finally undergo malo - exhibits an unusually dark color for its collection; offers a polished, rich, velvet-textured melange of lightly-cooked black fruits underlain by roasted red meats; and finishes sedately but with memorable savor and length. Lardiere's fears that the wine might end up disjointed have thus proven unfounded, and I suspect that this classic example of top-notch Clos Vougeot will be worth following over the next decade. And since there are a thousand cases of it, quite a few wine lovers can share that experience."

"A very earthy mix of medium and lower register dark berry fruit aromas framed in obvious wood introduces dense, powerful and serious big-bodied flavors replete with taut muscle and a textured, indeed almost thick mouth feel that culminate in a delicious, complex and youthfully austere finish of excellent length. For the patient." -91-93 Points - Allen Meadows - Burghound
