The Story

This powerfully structured, rich-fruited wine offers deep, layered berry and oak aromas and flavors, and a persistent finish. It should be held for 5 years in bottle before being opened, and will develop for 15 to 20 years in the cellar.

Serve with roasts or highly seasoned meats, game and most cheeses.

96 Points -

A full, very dense white that is tightly structured and layered. Plenty of cooked apples, lemons and white pineapple with stone and mineral undertones. Compact and tight. Solid and powerful. Give it three to four years to open, but already fantastic. Better after 2023.

95 Points -

The 2018 Corton-Pougets Grand Cru (Domaine des Héritiers Jadot) is always one of Jadot's finest reds and arguably represents the house's most overlooked wine. Opening in the glass with notes of sweet berry fruit, plums, licorice, rich soil tones and orange rind, the wine is full-bodied, deep and layered, with excellent concentration, lively acids and a powerful, muscular profile, concluding with a long and sapid finish.

 

93 Points - 

The bright, fresh black cherry fruit is framed by vanilla and toasty oak in this dense red. It gets a lift from the compact tannins, that leave a dusty, cocoa-like feel on the taut finish. Best from 2024 through 2042.
