According to Jadot's winemaker, Jacques Lardiere, the 1990 Pommard-Les Grands Epenots has 50 years of potential longevity. It is a massive, chewy, nearly opaquely colored wine, with a tight, but promising nose of black-cherries, earth, and sweet oak. Stupendously concentrated and explosively rich, this lusty, full-bodied wine offers additional evidence that in 1990, many of Pommard's winemakers enjoyed their finest vintage in decades. While it may last 50 years, this wine will be approaching full maturity in a decade. It is the best Pommard-Les Grands Epenots I have tasted from Jadot.Given the number of wines produced by Louis Jadot in 1990, it is hard to believe anyone has ever been more successful with so many different appellations. Moreover, what is so admirable about the Jadot red burgundies is that each of the wines is different. Jadot enjoyed remarkable success in the Cote de Beaune. Given the fact that these wines sell at lower prices than Jadot's offerings from the Cote de Nuits, consumers have an opportunity to purchase some stunning red burgundies from a great vintage at exceptionally fair prices. Furthermore, as I indicated in issue 83, all of Jadot's 1990s were bottled without filtration. Given the appalling weakness of the American dollar, the prices charged for these wines are to be applauded.Importer: Kobrand, Inc., New York, NY.
