Far more successful than two Jadot negociant Chambertin grand crus, their estate 2006 Chapelle-Chambertin – from very old vines – displays an alluring nose of rose petal and red fruits. In the mouth, pure, sweet red berry fruit is superbly transparent to nuances of an herbal and mineral (peat, iodine, chalk) elements, as an apparently direct result of which the finish here is dynamically interactive, a virtue reinforced by the wine's vintage-typical sense of buoyancy. This is texturally refined as well, though not without ample underlying tannin. One can enjoy it now, or anytime over the next decade, I predict.
