1997 Louis Jadot Clos Vougeot

94 pts - Wine Advocate

The dark colored 1997 Clos Vougeot, a vineyard that was particularly successful in this vintage, reveals candied red fruit and a myriad of spices in its aromatics. This over-ripe, massively dense, yet fresh and exceptionally well-structured wine is crammed with layer after layer of red and black compote-like fruit. Loads of supple yet present tannins provide this blockbuster with the backbone for moderate to long-term aging. Anticipated maturity: 2002-2012+. RP
