Note di degustazione
The 2018 Meursault 1er Cru Charmes (Domaine Louis Jadot) exhibits notes of buttered orchard fruit, almonds and vanilla pod. Medium to full-bodied, ample and fleshy, with chalky grip and moderate concentration, it's a touch short on the finish to be considered a top-flight Charmes.

Very opulent white with pure apple, mango and lemon-pie character. Some toffee undertones. Full-bodied with depth and intensity on the palate, creamy texture and a frame of acidity. Lots of flavor with a nice, wood and vanilla complement to the fruit at the end. Drink or hold.
The 2018 Meursault Charmes 1er Cru, Jadot’s second vintage from this vineyard, offers an intense bouquet of jasmine, dried honey and grilled walnut scents that seem well defined, if not quite as precise as some of the vineyard’s other exponents. The palate is fresh and well defined on the entry, with a slightly honeyed texture, a faint tang of marmalade and quince and a lightly spiced, quite persistent finish that feels satisfying, even if not as tensile as the Meursault-Blagny by direct comparison. Fine.
East facing with chalky soils, Charmes borders Puligny-Montrachet to its south. Fairly restrained on the nose – pithy, chalky and lightly spicy. Juicy, powerful stone fruits on the palate. Real depth and muscular, smoky fruit at the core. Concentrated but retaining refreshing acidity, this is big and bold but finely balanced. (TP)

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.
