Description
The Corton Charlemagne Grand Cru appellation is shared by the two villages of Aloxe-Corton and Pernand-Vergelesses in the northern part of the Côte de Beaune. The village of Aloxe-Corton has the rare feature that more than half of its area is covered with Grand Cru vineyards. The exposure varies from east to south and southwest.
This vineyard is one of the oldest owned by Louis Jadot since the 19th century. It is located in the heart of the appellation (next to Corton Pougets) which was extended after 1966. Originally it was the only place allowed to bear the appellation Corton-Charlemagne. This vineyard is ideally oriented to the south.
The Louis Jadot Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru (Domaine des Héritiers Jadot) is broad and muscular, unfolding in the glass with aromas of lime, orange peel, white flowers and pastry cream. Full, rich and textural, it is a thick, fleshy wine with great concentration and zesty balancing acidity. The 2019 was awarded 95/100 Parker (see link next to image for full review).
FACT: The wine is in our conditioned Wine Warehouse and if you come to pick up the wine you will also receive a nice discount. We are almost next to the highway with plenty of parking. Click here for address

Aromas of citrus zest, freshly baked bread, beeswax, buttered popcorn and vanilla pod introduce the 2019 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru (Domaine des Héritiers Jadot), a full-bodied, satiny, layered wine that's rich and muscular, with a concentrated, structured core of fruit girdled by racy acids and chalky dry extract. Long and resonant, it will reward patience.
The 2020 vintage has turned out beautifully at this address, delivering concentrated, flavorful wines with alcohol levels between 13.3% and 13.7% and with low pHs. Winemaker Frédéric Barnier told me that efforts were made to pick earlier in the day, and that fruit waiting to be processed was kept fresh in a special cold room. In the cellar, foudres and 500-liter barrels now complement classic 228-liter pièces, a further evolution adapting to warmer, riper vintages. But aside from the quality of the 2020s and these technical developments, described in more detail in the accompanying tasting notes, there's other noteworthy news too: in 2021, Jadot entered into organic conversion for their domaine vineyards.

Complex and sensual nose of citrus and pineapple with a touch of melted butter, the powerful and highly structured palate energized by the driving mineral acidity that pushes the tightly wound finish out a long way. Drink or hold.

From: Pump Up The Volume: 2019 Burgundy - Blind (Dec 2023)
The 2019 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru comes across a bit gregarious on the nose, the heat getting to the fruit a little, as revealed in its tropical notes of passion fruit and guava. This is not quite as well defined as its peers. Thankfully, the palate is well balanced with an attractive mouthfeel—quite honeyed and viscous, with countervailing acidity. There is plenty of spiciness toward the finish that leaves the mouth tingling. Overall, it ends up a bit of a brash but compelling Corton-Charlemagne that should age well in bottle. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.

Louis Jadot Cote de Beaune
In contrast to the Côte de Nuits - where almost exclusively red Burgundy is made - in the Côte de Beaune mostly white, but also some red wines are made. Both wine regions are part of the Côte d 'Or and are located east of the Hautes Côtes and are separated by wine city Beaune.
The most beautiful red Burgundies of the Côte d 'Or are made of pinot noir from marl-rich plots along a long low-lying hillside. The white grape groves can be found where the bottom of the 'Gold Coast' consists largely of limestone.
Both the vineyards of the Côte de Nuits and - Beaune are oriented east and southeast, and are therefore reasonably protected from the wet west wind.
The recent history of Burgundy house Louis Jadot started in 1970 when oenologist Jacques Lardière offered his services to André Gagey, the then general manager and father of the current - eponymous - manager of the company. As the chief man of the technical staff, the maître de chais, he is responsible for the more than 140 hectares of vineyards and the vinification process of some 150 wines from the Chablis, Côte d'Or, Côte Chalonnaise, Maconnais and Beaujolais. His approach is unique in the wine world at the time: he lets nature take its full course.
The quirky winemaker shuns the use of herbicides, pesticides, fertilizers and any other crop stimulants or protectants. Because, he believes, a healthy soil gives strong grapes and therefore good wines. In fact, Lardière is so confident in nature that he does not work with industrial yeasts, he finds complicated chemical analyzes in laboratories superfluous, and peeling and fermentation take place without temperature-influencing equipment. Only limited pruning and a 'green harvest' are allowed.
The grapes for the wines of Louis Jadot are always harvested manually. This prevents over- and unripe fruits from ending up in the vinification process. In addition, the grape pickers use small boxes when harvesting so that the bunches are not bruised or damaged prematurely. Grapes that nevertheless escape this attention are still removed from the selection table or table de tri.
The starting point for the vinification of Jadot wines is that each appellation has its unique smell and taste. The terroir so famous in Burgundy must always be recognizable in the wine. As a result, there is no such thing as general as a Jadot "wine style": each type of Louis Jadot wine has its own individual character.
