Having been to Taipei for a few days. The price of wine in Taiwan is really much higher than Hong Kong! I think I should pick some cheaper wine than to spend unnecessary.
Louis Jadot never leaves me with a good impression. From the several bottles at village levels I drank before, I was disappointed. They all lack necessary complexity and really too simple. Since 2009 is a really good vintage in Burgundy and quality is consistent from the lowest appellation up to grand cru vineyard. I really hope this bottle of 2009 Louis Jadot Cote de Beaune Villages won’t be too bad.
This bottle has a very intense nose. However, the nose is not attractive. Actually, I find it a bit offensive! Lacking sufficient fruit intensity but with strong tannic and bitter nose, I think this wine maybe a over-extracted. The same unbalance problem happens in palate. Louis Jadot really disappointed me again. I really lose my confident on Louis Jadot village appellation wines.
