Q

What are some notable vintages for Ladoix?

A
  • 2014 (third consecutive year of hail resulted in low yields, yet the best are complex, juicy and ageable)
  • 2012 (Less consistency than Côte de Nuits due to hail, resulting in less harmony and finesse overall, with some surprises)
  • 2005 (Beautifully balanced, with vibrant structures; rich in fruit and tannins. The top wines will age well)
