Note di degustazione
This comes from a grower that Jadot has worked with for many years on the Puligny side of this prestigious site. The wine is generous but balanced in 2023, with a rich, pastry-filled nose, tempered by lemon peel. It’s round and ripe on the palate, generous and full, layered with peach and yellow plum fruit, all cut by a line of limey acidity that runs through the wine. A lovely wine this year.

The 2023 Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru (Maison Louis Jadot) is rich and muscular, unwinding in the glass with aromas of minty pear, peach, white flowers and toasted nuts. Full-bodied, layered and textural, with a dense core of fruit, ripe acids and a long, lusty finish, it's a classic rendition of the appellation. Winemaker Frédéric Barnier and his team have once again delivered a strong portfolio chez Jadot. Barnier stressed the importance of sorting and of vigilance during élevage, in particular where acid rot made an appearance, and he didn't hesitate to perform a saignée for cuvées where yields where high. As I've written before, in the cellar, foudres and 500-liter barrels now complement classic 228-liter pièces, a further evolution adapting to warmer, riper vintages. What's more, barrels are now used four rather than three times, meaning the percentage of new oak overall has fallen. A cold room also helps chill down any fruit that's too warm when it enters the winery, something especially important during the warm 2023 harvest. This vintage also marks the third vintage of organic conversion for the Domaine Louis Jadot and the Domaine Gagey.

Vinified in mainly new oak. Cask sample. Subtle oak overlay of spice and oatmeal over the tangy lemon and green fruits. Rich, intensely youthful yet with great potential thanks to the freshness and the depth of fruit. Really long.
Informazioni sul produttore
Louis Jadot is arguably the most consistent négociant house in Burgundy. It has managed to straddle both the entry-level and fine wine market, while retaining respect in both.
