Tasting Notes

A crisp bright purple colour. This has a gorgeous purity and precision, a ravishing lifted red fruit intensity, good acidity and well ripened tannins. Very elegant yet intense Chambolle, with a beautiful finish. Tasted: November 2021

Jasper Morris MW, Inside Burgundy, November 2021

The 2020 Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Fuées (Domaine Louis Jadot) reveals a deep bouquet of plums, dark berry fruit, exotic spices, orange rind and raw cocoa. Medium to full-bodied, velvety and concentrated, with powdery tannins, tangy acids and a mineral finish, it's a real success.

William Kelley, Wine Advocate, January 2022

The very deep sour-cherry nose with delicate floral notes pulls you into the gravitational field of this remarkable Chambolle-Musigny. It manages to be riper and more concentrated than the wines of this appellation normally are, yet it retains fabulous mineral and blood-orange freshness that enables this to light up the night sky like a fireworks display. Very long and energetic finish. From organically grown grapes. Drinkable now, but best from 2024.

Mid ruby-purple in colour. Super fragrant, bringing pure red cherry and strawberry, laced with peppery spices and a hint of sweet vanilla. Displaying supreme finesse and intensity, the jewels of red fruit at the core fly across the palate in effortless ripeness. Peppery and floral, this is vibrant and incredible moreish, yet deep and clearly built to age. A very fine example.
