Blackberry, incense, medium intensity. Very nice young nose. Taste follows through with beautiful blackberry notes, firm grainy tannins integrated with the acidity. Broad and typical Beaune open flavors but with underlying spine to show this will age Really a baby drinking well with a tremendous finish. An open southern Cote de Nuits style. Very much apprecieated.

Light red slightly turbid. The smokiest nose I've ever smelled in a Jadot wine, to the point of bringing bacony Cote Roties to mind. Light to medium weight, dark red fruit, high acidity that is not completely in harmony, brambly finish with some astringency. This was a lot of fun to smell and had some nice qualities in the mouth, but the balance is not quite there and I can only see it losing its current appeal as the fruit dries leaving only the acid and wood behind.

Weekend at Zuli's; 2/16/2012-2/19/2012 (St. Catharines, Ontario): Decanted 1 hour, consumed over 2 hours. Medium ruby color, 13% abv. Nose of red cherry and raspberry fruit, coffee grounds, and wet gravel. Tastes of slightly underripened cherries and plums, with a slight peppery quality, medium bodied, tight tannic structure, would wait at least a year on future bottles. Nice QPR.

Red cherries, wood spice and a bit of damp earth on the nose. Light to medium bodied with a nice velvet texture. On the palate, black cherry fruit, damp earth and toasty oak in balance. Very nice, especially the mouthfeel, but not as elegant as the '07 Boucherottes or Croix Pierre.

Nose shows some leather and wet leaves. Some bit of cherry and vanilla oak shows on the palate. Good bit of energy in reserve on the palate. Tightens with acid and tart cherry at the end. Needs some time to come together, but another successful '07 Jadot Beaune value play along with Bucherotte and Dominode for me.

Opened blind. Strawberry, cranberry, pretty aromas. Oak apparent to me. Light-medium bodied. Best mouth feel and balance of the flight. Good value at $19.99.

Tasty young beaune; shows on the simple side now with attractive flavors of cherry vanilla and baking spices in a silky, almost elegant package. Not at all complex, but very enjoyable nonetheless. We'll have to see where this one goes with some time in bottle.

Blackberries, leather, smoke on the nose. Still some fruit in the mouth too. Bit too much acidity. Overall not bad for spring afternoon in the garden.

Double decanted a couple of hours before serving and the air really did this wine good. Nice cherry fruit, baking spice and great acidity.

Drinking well now, will be even better in few years, when vanilla flavors will disappear making the bright cherry even more pronounced.
