Professor Bainbridge...on law, politics, religion, culture & food

Louis Jadot Puligny-Montrachet (2004)

The initial impression is dominated by new French oak. Lots of toast and vanilla. But there is a core of lovely fruit--apples, pears, and citrus--and firm acidity that redeems this wine as a food friendly white. I served it with a lobster bisque, supplemented with a the meat from a couple of Australian lobster tails, foir which it made an excellent match. Grade: B++
