An even ruby purple. This is very complete, the fruit covering the palate effortlessly, the acid and tannin structure perfectly balanced and a particularly long aftertaste with a suggestion of blood orange. Drink from 2030-2038. Tasted Oct 2024.

Louis Jadot Description
Unquestionably one of the finest Beaune red wines, this combines a bold structure with complex textural and flavor nuances. Initial aromas of dark fruit, espresso, and damp earth support a textural impression of weight, dense rounded tannins and fine acidity. Alcohol levels tend to be rather high yet not noticeable as part of the overall structure.
Clos des Ursules is a historic Beaune vineyard and key to the Jadot origin story as the first parcel acquired in 1826. The vineyard is a sub-climate of the Vignes Franches terroir and is divided into two sections (upper & lower) with a landmark stone hut in the center. Soils are deep red clay which tend to impart structure and elegance to the wines. Pinot Noir here is harvested manually and brought to the nearby winery for triage, destemming, and natural fermentation in passive oak vats. After alcoholic fermentation is complete the wine is racked into oak barrels for malolactic fermentation and extended aging. Approximately 16 months later the cuvee is reassembled for bottling.
James Suckling: 96 Points
There’s a lovely depth of fruit here with lifted, perfumed aromas of cherries, rose petals, blood oranges, hibiscus and terra-cotta. The medium-bodied palate has a silky, rounded mouthfeel, supported by fine-grained tannins. A great balance between freshness and power, offering immediate drinking pleasure and good aging potential. Drink or hold.
