@>02 COMBE AUX JACQUES BEAUJ-VILL (JADOT)
VINTAGES 365924 750 mL bottle

Wine, Still Table Wine, Red Still Table Wine
12.5% Alcohol/Vol.

Made in: Burgundy, France
By: Maison Louis Jadot
Release Date: N/A

Got bold, left the Aussie and California sections(my usuals) and
walked around the offerings from France. Picked up this bottle(only
$15). Second impression(2nd glass of wine) showed me that it was
reasonably smooth(only medium bodied) but with less fruit taste than I
would have liked. Third glass(after time) seemed even better.

Now I think Iknow what many of the experienced members mean when they
say that the wine's character changes during the course of several
hours of breathing and drinking.

What might I try next that would be available here and pack a bit
fruitier punch?
