The 2018 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru (Domaine des Héritiers Jadot) has turned out beautifully in bottle, offering up an elegantly patinated bouquet of citrus oil, peach and apricot mingled with fresh bread, toasted almonds, mint, and vanilla pod. This is full-bodied, rich, and textural, with a fleshy core of fruit, chalky structure, and bright acids. Its powerful, broad-shouldered profile reflects its origins in Les Pougets in the commune of Aloxe-Corton.
The 2017 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru is excellent, displaying a lovely bouquet of lemon oil, white flowers, crushed chalk, and a discrete touch of new oak. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, tensile, and tight knit, with chewy structuring dry extract, tangy acids and a long, grippy finish. This is built for the cellar and will be well worth seeking out.
Aromas of yellow orchard fruit, waxy lemon rind, iodine and smoky new oak introduce the 2016 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru full-bodied, satiny, and nicely layered wine that's deep, concentrated, and persistent. It's a youthfully reserved but decidedly impressive Corton-Charlemagne that will reward bottle age.
The 2015 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru from Domaine des Héritiers Louis Jadot offers up a generous nose of buttered apples, preserved citrus and a creamy framing of new oak, followed on the palate by a full-bodied, rich, and ample wine with considerable textural impact and moderate depth at the core, finishing with light grip and noticeable alcoholic warmth.
Jadot's 2014 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru has a light brioche-scented nose that lacks some complexity at first, but aeration sees more minerality developing. The palate improves in the glass eventually; it demonstrates fine weight in the mouth. It boasts a slightly honeyed texture with a touch of nutmeg on the finish. Very fine.
