Jadot Clos St Jacques Vertical: '90 '02 '08 (Rosebowl @ Ben & Kendra's): Pnp over 4 hours. The 1990. A moving experience. several particular sips took my breath away; maybe it's just new year's day. A range of beautiful spice and dirt on the nose with distant cherries and the singe of grilled steak. Incredible palate. Intensity, iron, cherries. Very savory. Wonderful texture. Wood tannins are smoothed and integrated with supple fruit tannins but that impacts the texture, not the flavors--still somehow both generous and delicate. A quiet peekaboo of subtle complexities like grilled corn and pineapple, blue fruits, brambleberry. Mind blowing density on medium body without weight. Long magical finish. Surprising at moments and ethereal. Best now-2028.

Well stored example, started off very subtle but with time in the glass, absorbing air, it blossomed and demonstrated a gorgeous dark red pinot noir character and real terroir. It is on the coarse, robust side of Burgundy.

Wow, this showed beautifully from a perfect bottle with sweet cherry fruit and an aged, ethereal texture. The finish has a lovely complexity with notes of red spices and earth-driven minerals. Very subtle and elegant and fully mature.

Just a little green of age to it. So soft and supple on the palate. Outstanding right now. Just amazing.
