Louis Jadot, Les Murgers des Dents de Chien 1er Cru, St. Aubin, Burgundy, 2011

Tasting: St. Aubin 2011

 Oaky, grassy, apricot nose, quite assertive. Broad, rich, full-bodied, and hefty, with power rather than finesse. There’s admirable concentration here, and pungency from the acidity, but it remains somewhat raw and unformed. Needs time to harmonise. Mineral and long.

Tasting: St. Aubin 2011

 Certainly plenty of acid. Very racy and nicely austere. Quite intense. Will need plenty of time. Promising. Punchy. Backward. Quite big.

Tasting: St. Aubin 2011

 Fullish yellow, full yellow fruits on the nose, quite high phenolics and quite high alcohol, oak and weight at the expense of finesse.
