Louis Jadot Chambertin Clos de Beze Grand Cru Magnum
Vintage: | 2018 |

Description: | (96 Points) Revisited from bottle, Jadot's 2018 Chambertin Clos de Bèze Grand Cru (Domaine Louis Jadot) is showing beautifully, wafting from the glass with a deep and complex bouquet of cherries, cassis and wild berries mingled with nuances of cinnamon, raw coca, dark chocolate and orange rind. Full-bodied, sumptuous and enveloping, it's deep and layered, with a seductively velvety attack, terrific concentration and a long, expansive finish. Beautifully balanced, it's bright and lively despite its broad shoulders. This has turned out especially well. In 2019, I reported on over 120 different 2018 Burgundies from Louis Jadot. As I wrote then, Jadot's Frédéric Barnier was optimistic about the reds from the beginning, but, he said, "We worked hard with the white wines-blocking a lot of malolactic-to make them fresh and lively." Revisiting an extensive range from bottle in my office in the United States, I was gratified to find the wines just as consistent as they had shown in barrel. The accompanying tasting notes record my impressions in detail. Winie Advocate. |
