Produced from Chardonnay grown on the Corton hill, this Grand Cru offers concentration, mineral precision, citrus, white orchard fruit and refined oak integration. Careful barrel maturation enhances structure while preserving freshness, resulting in a complex Burgundy with remarkable balance, depth and extended ageing potential.
Food Pairing: Pairs best with lobster, scallops, roasted turbot, creamy poultry dishes and aged Comte cheese.
96 Points - James Suckling
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 - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Notes of fresh pear, waxy citrus rind, white flowers, toasted almonds and crushed chalk preface the 2018 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru (Domaine des Heritiers Jadot), a full-bodied, tensile and structured wine that's racy, phenolic and youthfully introverted, concluding with a mineral finish. Once again, this is built for the cellar and will be well worth seeking out.
Barrel Sample: 93-95
94 Points - Decanter
The Jadot holdings are in the Les Pougets climat, which faces due south and can produce quite full-bodied wines. That's not the case here, mind you, as this was picked early and was prevented from going through malolactic fermentation to retain precious acidity. It's a refined, subtle, alluring Grand Cru with notes of white flowers and citrus, some flinty reduction and undertones of aniseed and nutmeg.
94 Points - Wilfred Wong
COMMENTARY: The 2018 Louis Jadot Domaine des Heritiers Louis Jadot Corton-Charlemagne is fully-layered and aristocratic. TASTING NOTES: This is a complete Burgundy with aroma and flavors of ripe fruit and oak. Pair it with lobster in a savory wine reduction, cream sauce. (Tasted: February 3, 2020, San Francisco, CA)
