The Story
The Grand Cru is a powerful wine with a structure similar to Côte de Nuits wines. The vineyard orientation allows to elaborate a wine with silky tannins and harmonious acidity. Les Grèves is a Southeast exposure vineyard based on a siliceous soil. This gives power and delicacy to the wine.
Food Pairing: Sensational alongside roasted duck breast, herb-crusted rack of lamb, slow-braised beef, or earthy mushroom risotto and aged Gruyere cheese.
94 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Mingling aromas of sweet berry fruit and plums with hints of raw cocoa, warm spices and orange rind, the 2019 Corton Grèves Grand Cru (Domaine Louis Jadot) is medium to full-bodied, rich and chalky, with fine concentration and a youthfully tightly wound profile. This is promising, but it will require a bit of patience.
