Note di degustazione
The 2020 Corton-Pougets Grand Cru has a classy bouquet, much more understated in style, with brambly red fruit, briar and wilted flowers, but it seems to peak and then becomes a little muffled after 15 minutes. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red fruit, elegant in style and more transparent than its peers, yet it exerts an insistent grip. Nicely composed, it's just the aromatics that leave a question mark, but this will surely achieve a mid-90s score with bottle age. You can see the potential. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.

The 2020 Corton-Pougets Grand Cru (Domaine des Héritiers Jadot) is excellent, mingling aromas of cherries and raspberries with notions of raw cocoa, orange rind, warm spices and smoke. Full-bodied, velvety and layered, it's deep and concentrated, with powdery tannins, bright acids and a long, resonant finish.
The 2020 Corton-Pougets Grand Cru is often one of Jadot’s strongest cards amongst the Côte de Beaune reds and this is no different. It has a captivating bouquet with earthy red fruit, graphite, just a faint hint of menthol that emerges with time. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red fruit, lightly spiced with a dash of white pepper towards the sustained finish. It will require several years in bottle to show its best, but it will be worth waiting for.

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.
