1990 Domaine Louis Jadot Beaune 1er Cru "Clos des Ursules" (3cm fill, past seepage, corroded/torn capsule)

Jadot's stunning 1990 Beaune Clos des Ursules is fully mature, although there is no rush to consume it as it will enjoy another 5-8 years of life. The color is a healthy medium ruby with lightening at the edge. A sweet, earthy, mineral, dusty, black cherry-scented nose is intense and ripe. In the mouth, the wine is medium to full-bodied, with a plush texture, a subtle note of toasty oak, and a long, layered, heady finish. The acidity is present, but it is not intrusive.
