Really in a good spot today, showing excellent ripeness but with proper balance and some structural elements giving the wine a full and complex mouthfeel. Dark cherry, minerals, and (appropriate) oak notes. I imagine this will last for some time. Relatively speaking a great bargain for GC Burgundy (95-96)

Annual Jadot (plus Dau) with Frederic Barnier (RPM Steak): 02/03 blind. An incredibly impressive 2003 with deliciously round, fresh and layered fruit. Not a hint of roastedness or heaviness. Everything in the right place and with excellent complexity to the fruit. At a joyous peak.

Blind 96/97/02/03. Every bit as good as the amazing 2002. In total harmony with rich, robust black cherry and well-integrated structure. Not a hint of over-ripe or roastedness. Very tough to decide whether this was 02 or 03.

Jadot Bonnes Mares and Gevrey CSJ 96/97/02/03 + (Hughes House - Chicago IL): Also in single blind 96/97/02/03 vertical. More black vs red fruit, this was completely seamless and fully engaging, even if less powerful than the (equally brilliant) 2002. Great length. Difficult to tell if this was the 2002 or 2003, and I thought wrong.

Louis Jadot (& Clair-Daü) Dinner with Frédéric Barnier (RPM Steak - Chicago IL): Almost as great as the brilliant 2002 served blind in the next glass. Both rich, but this 2003 didn't have quire the same concentration and hints of evolving complexity. But still so much here.
