The Exemplar of Burgundy - Louis Jadot

by Hugh French | Oct 24, 2023

 

Louis Jadot

 

 

Louis Jadot, renowned for its extensive portfolio encompassing over 150 appellations of Burgundy, stands as one of the region's preeminent producers. While the sheer volume of their wine offerings might lead some to assume a focus on quantity over quality, this venerable estate consistently disproves this. In each successive vintage, Louis Jadot's wines emerge as exemplars of their respective appellations. The core ethos at Louis Jadot is, essentially, to have no house style at all and let the nuanced differences in terroir speak clearly for themselves.

Besides the incredible 2021 vintage release, we have also a fantastic selection of back vintage Louis Jadot wines available. Follow the link below to see the full range.

2021 Meursault 1er Cru 'Charmes'

Usually $249
Special Offer $229

"Clear mid yellow. So much energy here too. An impressively racy quality with plenty of weight, very Charmes in character, strong fruit, and then a crunch of acidity. A little saline touch yet also some of the more exotic side."
92-95 Points
Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy

 

2021 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru 'Folatieres'

Usually $319
Special Offer $294

"There will be no En la Richarde Folatières from Héritiers Louis Jadot this year, but this bottling is superb. A little more toastiness on the nose. This builds beautifully to the back of the palate, showing an excellent backbone with just the right elegance of minerality. Really good. Bravo."
94-96 Points (5-Stars)
Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy

 

2021 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru

Usually $659
Special Offer $599

"Don't Miss! Cooler and airier aromas include those of mostly green apple, mineral reduction, crushed fennel and white flowers. There is almost painful intensity to the beautifully textured if slightly less concentrated medium-bodied flavors that exude a pungent stoniness on the tautly muscular, moderately austere and bone-dry finale that goes on and on. It's rare that the Jadot CC appears more interesting than the Demoiselles but at this very early juncture, it seems to have a slight edge. Either way, this is terrific."
93-96 Points
Allen Meadows, Burghound

 

2021 Batard-Montrachet Grand Cru

Usually $1,349
Special Offer $1,249

"From the Puligny side of the appellation. Clear beautiful yellow colour. The nose is discreet but very classy, then this huge wealth of fruit expands across the palate. We can wait for the nose. This is beautifully poised, a little wood, a slight youthful bitterness, but both add to the grip. Long and fine."
95-97 Points

2021 Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru 'Les Demoiselles'

Usually $1,749
Special Offer $1,649

"The 2021 Chevalier-Montrachet Demoiselles Grand Cru is a step up from the Bâtard-Montrachet in terms of complexity and mineralité. Yellow plum and pressed flower hints emerge and lend more complexity with time. The palate is well balanced with a crisp line of acidity. This Chevalier gathers momentum towards a detailed, lightly spiced finish with just the right amount of extract. The 2021 has real pedigree."
95-97 Points

2021 Savigny-les-Beaune 1er Cru 'La Dominode'

Usually $115
Special Offer $105

"This is also sufficiently toasty to merit pointing out but not so much so as to fight with the spiced plum, violet and freshly turned earth scents. The delicious medium weight flavors possess a bit more volume though it would be fair to describe them as only moderately concentrated, all wrapped in a sneaky long and youthfully austere finish. This is sufficiently structured to reward up to a decade of keeping, which should also help to add depth."
90-93 Points
Allen Meadows, Burghound

 

2021 Corton Grand Cru 'Pougets'

Usually $309
Special Offer $289

"The 2021 Corton-Pougets Grand Cru has a wonderful bouquet with transparent red cherry, raspberry and floral notes. This wine is classy and seductive. The palate is medium-bodied with ripe tannins. It's lithe and agile in the mouth with a mineral undertow towards the finish. Often one of Jadot's classiest offerings, this Pougets is no different and one of their stars in 2021."
94-96 Points
Neal Marton, Vinous.com

 

2021 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru 'Clos St-Jacques'

Usually $569
Special Offer $539


"Sweet spot, Outstanding.Moderate wood combines with cool aromas spice, violet, lilac, red currant and just enough sauvage character to be interesting. The exceptionally rich and generously proportioned flavors coat the palate with sappy dry extract on the solidly powerful yet suave bitter pit fruit-inflected finish. This is an atypical 2021 as it is more like a 2020 on the palate though without the higher ripeness levels. Excellent development potential here."
92-94 Points
Allen Meadows, Burghound

 

2021 Musigny Grand Cru


Usually $2,299
Special Offer $2,199

"Don't Miss! There is a whiff of green tea character on the even spicier aromas of red and dark cherry, anise and hoisin nuances. The suave and gorgeously textured broad-shouldered yet wonderfully refined flavors also exude plenty of minerality while coating the palate on the powerful, serious and overtly austere finish that goes on and goes. This beauty of a Musigny is markedly compact and clearly constructed to repay extended keeping."
93-96 Points
