Louis Jadot Beaune Bressandes 1er Cru 2009

The 2009 Beaune Bressandes emerges from the glass with layers of beautifully delineated fruit. It shows lovely finesse and understated elegance. There is a level of precision that is unusual for the year. A long, multi-dimensional finish rounds things out nicely. Readers seeking the subtler side of the 2009 whites will find much to admire. These young vines handled the challenge of the vintage admirably. Anticipated maturity: 2012+. Score - 92. (Antonio Galloni, erobertparker.com, Sept. 2011)
