Red Wine by Louis Jadot from Burgundy, France - regions. Between Vosne-Romanee and Flagey-Echezeaux there are seven grands crus, arguably the greatest of the Cote d'Or, whose names are synonymous with rarity and costliness. La Tache, a vineyard of 14.98 acres, Romanee- Conti, with 4.46 acres, and La Romanee, a tiny parcel of 2.09 acres, all lie in Vosne-Romanee and are all solely-owned vineyards of single proprietors who have long produced and commercialized the totality of their production.

Finishes very long and aromatic, with terrific spicy length. Very cerebral wine, as good a sample of a wine not vinified by Lardiere as I tasted here in November. Lardiere told me Jadot began buying from a second supplier of Grands-Echezeaux in 2003, and this estate uses Jadot's barrels. (Readers may recall that the 2003 Grands-Echezeaux wa
