Tasting Notes

One of the finest wines in the Jadot portfolio, the 2017 Chambertin Clos de Bèze Grand Cru (Domaine Louis Jadot) unfurls in the glass with aromas of sweet red berries, menthol, dark chocolate, blood orange and grilled meats. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, ample and layered, with superb depth and dimension, succulent acids and notable concentration, its tannins entirely cloaked in fruit. While this is a comparatively supple, giving rendition of this cuvée, it will nevertheless demand patience.

93/95
William Kelley, Wine Advocate, January 2019

Once again there is a hint of forest floor to the fresh and intensely spicy, floral, wild dark berry aromas that are trimmed in moderate wood influence. There is fine richness and excellent power to the focused, caressing and energetic flavors that deliver an impressively long finish that is shaped by very firm but fine tannins. This will also need plenty of time to arrive at its apogee.
