Bonnes-Mares Grand Cru Domaine Louis Jadot 2020

The wine

The Bonnes-Mares vineyards that reach the commune of Morey-Saint Denis produce rougher wines (similar but slightly inferior to the Chambertins), but the majority of this appellation is situated in Chambolle-Musigny where the wines are round and delicate. The Bonnes-Mares from the Louis Jadot house is situated in Chambolle-Musingny on land with cracked, brown, marly soil. An elegant wine, sturdier than most of the Chambolles. Bonnes-Mares releases a very appealing scent of cooked blackberries. This full-bodied, mellow and slightly over-mature wine develops notes of red cherry compote, stone and mocha coffee. A great Burgundy wine.

About the Producer Louis Jadot (domaine)

The Jadot house, in Beaune, is one of the most prestigious in Burgundy; it produces nearly all the Burgundy appellations. Now owned by a wealthy American family, the wines are produced under the management of Frédéric Barnier who ensures great regularity for the bottles. This is indeed why the Jadot house stands out in Burgundy: over 225 hectares and 130 appellations (Côte d'Or, but also Mâcon and Beaujolais), the vast price range will satisfy everybody’s tastes. The legendary head of Bacchus is always on the label. The domain uses traditional wine-making methods: a long fermentation and maturing. Chemical herbicides are prohibited and yields are strictly limited.
