The 2019 Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Les Chaumes (Maison Louis Jadot) looks promising, bursting with aromas of blackberries, cassis, sweet soil tones and spices. Medium to full-bodied, supple and enveloping with powdery tannins and a lively core of fruit, it concludes with a long, flavorful finish. It's as good a Charmes as I can remember tasting from Jadot.
This isn't quite as spicy though it's still clearly Vosne in basic character with a very pretty combination of ripe red cherry, raspberry and soft floral highlights. The round, plush and fleshy middle weight flavors possess an equally lovely texture that again contrasts somewhat with the dusty and firm finale that is reasonably well-balanced despite a hint of warmth. However, as is usually the case when comparing the wines of Suchots and Les Chaumes, the finish is not nearly as complex.
