Tasting Notes
Vinous 92
The 2018 Chapelle-Chambertin Grand Cru has an exquisite bouquet with pure brambly red berry fruit, loam and light rose petal scents. The palate is medium-bodied with a creamy opening, perhaps the oak just a little vocal at present. Good weight, quite seductive, though maybe just missing some mineralité on the finish. Fine. Tasted blind at the Burgfest 2018 red tasting.
Anticipated maturity: 2024-2044
Robert Parker 94
The 2018 Chapelle-Chambertin Grand Cru (Domaine Louis Jadot) lives up to its fine showing in barrel, unwinding in the glass with notes of cherries, red berries and licorice mingled with hints of violets and warm spices. Full-bodied, layered and seamless, with a deep core of fruit, velvety tannins and succulent acids, it’s elegant and complete, concluding with a long, mouthwatering finish. This has turned out beautifully.
Anticipated maturity: 2028-2058
