One of Jadot's more consequential cuvées is the 2022 Meursault, a medium-bodied, ample and fleshy wine redolent of apple, pear, nutmeg and white flowers. It's a strong effort this year.
The 2021 Meursault reveals notes of peach, pear, beeswax, nutmeg and smoke, followed by a medium to full-bodied, rich and textural palate underpinned by lively acids and concluding with a nicely defined finish. One of Jadot's larger cuvées, this has turned out nicely.
Aromas of buttery orchard fruit, hazelnuts, white flowers and beeswax introduce the 2020 Meursault Village (Maison Louis Jadot), a medium to full-bodied, ample and satiny wine underpinned by tangy acids and chalky grip. Concluding with a saline finish, it's a fine effort that represents one of the house's larger cuvées.
Aromas of buttered toast, honeyed peaches, white flowers, and mint introduce the 2019 Montrachet Grand Cru, a full-bodied, layered, and enveloping wine that's satiny and sumptuous, with lively acids and fine depth at the core. This Montrachet -purchased from the Chassagne-Montrachet side, from the house's usual source -is undeniably promising.
There are nine barrels of the 2018 Montrachet Grand Cru, a broad-shouldered, powerful wine that offers up aromas of pear, white flowers, buttered citrus, and warm bread. On the palate, it's full-bodied, layered, and fleshy, with a rounded, muscular profile and a long, resonant finish.
Aromas of crisp peach, mandarin oil, orange blossom and mint introduce the 2017 Montrachet Grand Cru, a full-bodied, ample wine with a broad, textural attack and juicy balancing acids, though it can't match the density or cut of the stunning Chevalier Demoiselles from Domaine fruit.
The 2015 Montrachet Grand Cru has a potent nose with dried honey and blackberry leaf, orange blossom and cold stone developing in the glass. The palate is very well balanced with crisp acidity, viscous, almost waxy in texture with decent weight on the finish, although this year the Chevalier-Montrachet is in possession of more personality and race.

The French Wine region of Burgundy (aka “Bourgogne”) may be small in size, but its influence is huge in the world of vino. The complexity of Burgundy can cast fear into the heart of even a seasoned wine pro, but fear not – the region need only be as complicated as you want it to be. Yes, it is home to some of the most expensive wines in the known universe, but there are also tasty and affordable wines.

Main grapes:

Pinot Noir originated in Burgundy and these vines cover 34% of the region, accounting for 29% of overall wine production. The red grape does extremely well in limestone and clay soil, which helps create their complexity. Pinot Noir wines from Burgundy range in colour from cherry to brick, are light in body, and typically have red fruit and spicy flavours. Gamay is a red grape also grown in Burgundy, but only makes up 10% of the vines.

Chardonnay is the primary grape for white wines in Burgundy, making up 48% of the vines and 68% of production. Chardonnay appreciates Burgundy’s marl soil, which gives it delicate floral, fruit, and mineral aromas and full-bodied flavours. Aligoté is the second white grape, accounting for 6% grown. {Read more about the ancient Aligoté grape in Burgundy.}

The region does produce a sparkling wine called Crémant de Bourgogne. It can be made from Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, Aligoté, Gamay, Sacy, and Melon. Varieties include blanc, blanc de blancs, blanc de noirs, and rosé.
