Tasting notes

The 2016 Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru has a voluptuous and sensual bouquet, perhaps the most instantly attractive of the quintet of Jadot's grand cru Gevreys that I tasted. There are waves of crushed strawberries, black cherries, blueberry and violet aromas all neatly entwined with the new oak. The palate is medium-bodied with fleshy black cherry and boysenberry fruit laced with bay leaf and black tea, becoming more structured and Mazoyères-like on the finish.

About this wine

Louis Jadot is a renowned Burgundy producer, established in 1859 by Louis Henry Denis Jadot. The winery is based in Beaune, in the heart of the Côte d'Or, and is renowned for its high-quality wines. The Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru is one of the most prestigious wines produced by Louis Jadot. It is a full-bodied red wine made from 100% Pinot Noir grapes, grown in the Grand Cru vineyard of Charmes-Chambertin. The wine is aged for 18 months in oak barrels, giving it a complex and intense flavor.

The nose is dominated by aromas of ripe red fruits, with hints of spices and earthy notes. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and well-structured, with a long and persistent finish. The Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru is a perfect accompaniment to red meats, game, and mature cheeses.
