Tasting notes
Aromas of cherries, berries, vine smoke and rose petal introduce the 2024 Corton Grèves Grand Cru (Domaine Louis Jadot), a medium- to full-bodied, supple and fleshy wine with good energy and lift. To my palate, this has the edge over the Pougets this year.

The 2024 Corton Grèves Grand Cru has a feistier nose than the Corton-Pougets, albeit without the same harmony and refinement, a bit boisterous by comparison. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannins, cohesive and quite peppery in style. Initially dominated by red fruit, darker fruit manifests towards the finish with touches of cedar and undergrowth. Some bitterness on the aftertaste. Quite mercurial in glass, it will be interesting to see how this plays out in bottle.

About the producer
Louis Jadot is arguably the most consistent négociant house in Burgundy. It has managed to straddle both the entry-level and fine wine market, while retaining respect in both.
