| Community Tasting Notes (average 87.1 pts. and median of 88 pts. in 124 notes) - hiding notes with no text | | | Tasted by PDavisMarble on 7/30/2022 & rated 89 points: This punches far above its weight. Left in the cellar a bit too long, but still some fruit and elegance. Great value. (1678 views) | | | Tasted by franm on 6/12/2022 & rated 89 points: cheers - still quite a bit of fruit on the nose when first opened....nicely balanced after an hour open. This would be a 90+ wine if the finish had more length....it's quite short, leaving questions about the wine's complexity (1782 views) | | | Tasted by bluepeter2020@outlook.com on 11/12/2021 & rated 87 points: More complex than I anticipated at this price point. Very good QPR. (2279 views) | | | Tasted by wine4ever on 10/12/2021: Very simple and light, but good. (2319 views) | | | Tasted by wine4ever on 6/23/2021: A simple, solid French Burgundy at an affordable price. Great weekday wine with salmon (2593 views) | | | Tasted by bccdavid on 4/4/2021 & rated 84 points: Disappointingly, Thin & lacking. Not a good QPR (1769 views) | | | Tasted by ClayAE on 2/14/2021 & rated 88 points: Had with rack of lamb. About the same as last review. Nothing spectacular but nothing negative. Solid QPR. (1742 views) | | | Tasted by joet626 on 1/24/2021 & rated 88 points: Good. Light and acidic. Much lighter in body than the Cali pinots that I have been drinking. (1385 views) | | | Tasted by Vinobc on 12/20/2020 & rated 92 points: Is there better proof that in Burgundy, vintage trumps everything? This opened with a nose of cherries and plum. Nice minerality. Cherry, plum and blackberry flavors. As usual, served with a perfectly roasted chicken, score reflects the combination with the food. (1426 views) | | | Tasted by WIART on 11/13/2020 & rated 87 points: Mild strawberry nose. Light in body. Some residual tannin. I expect it will improve with a bit more age. (1352 views) | | | Tasted by Rebecca3 on 10/2/2020: Really enjoy this pinot Noir (1329 views) | | | Tasted by springdrive on 9/11/2020: Sweet cherry and sweat on the nose. Gym socks, leather, raspberry, glue, fig, and cardboard. This one seems to hit the wrong notes for me. (1243 views) | | | Tasted by wine4ever on 9/9/2020: Very nice and better than it was 15 months ago. Medium bodied, clear garnet in color, light strawberry and rose aromas. Elegant, fresh, crisp, and dry with juicy cherry, strawberry flavors, and a hint of spice. Simple but very good and a good QPR for a French burgundy. (1229 views) | | | Tasted by Winning_Wines on 8/24/2020 & rated 88 points: Nothing special, but everything you would want for a Tuesday red Burgundy. Good enough that I would buy again. (1270 views) | | | Tasted by ClayAE on 4/12/2020 & rated 88 points: Maybe too young. Light body yet spicy with cinnamon. Tannins slightly forward. Good table wine but was expecting more. Will leave another year and see what develops. Should get better. (1931 views) | | | Tasted by MrsAshley09 on 3/21/2020: Didn't like. Smelled fruity but drank sour. (1780 views) | | | Tasted by franm on 1/19/2020 & rated 88 points: cheers - highly rated by WS, at this price point I bought 3 and figured it was time to try one....did not disappoint, although still drinking very young....light medium ruby color....very thin legs....cherries, strawberries, and leather on the nose...fruit and some earth, medium high acidity, low to medium tannins (more than I expected), smooth and balanced with nice finish....will try to wait until 2022 before I try the next one (2216 views) | | | Tasted by mitiman2003 on 1/2/2020 & rated 88 points: Medium-light body, reddish-purple color w/ excellent clarity in the glass. Plenty of black cherry, spice, and mineral notes on the nose. Cherry, black pepper spice, a hint of cinnamon, & earthy hints on the palate. Well balanced with some tannins and a slightly firm structure. Overall an excellent Pinot Noir. (2272 views) | | | Tasted by Brent25 on 12/20/2019 & rated 89 points: Clear pale ruby; clean medium minus nose of red cherries, strawberries, raspberries, black plums and rich earth; dry; medium plus acidity; medium tannins; medium alcohol; medium body; medium plus flavour intensity; pfn; medium plus finish; very good quality; fantastic value - very consistent, doesn’t disappoint (2426 views) | | | Tasted by danielbleier on 10/24/2019 & rated 88 points: nice wine for the price point, fairly expressive and yet a good representative style for Burgundy. (2475 views) | | | Tasted by macaujames on 10/17/2019 & rated 89 points: 89 +. A nice opulent lightly minerally, aromatic blue fruited and balanced silky decently oaked medium bodied wine which has gained in weight and length this year. 13%. Great at around 11 Euros! Drink over the next couple of years. (2658 views) | | | Tasted by Daltond333 on 9/23/2019: Graphite, cherry, light acidity and silky tannins, medium body (2227 views) | | | Tasted by leachriscellar on 9/12/2019 & rated 89 points: Dense raspberry and spice. Great QPR. (2205 views) | | | Tasted by slywka7 on 9/1/2019 & rated 90 points: Not sure how long this has been open. Aromas of cherry, strawberry, mushroom and forest floor. Flavors of cherry, mushroom, earth and herb. Ends a 15-20 second finish with tropical earth and cherry notes. Better than the last time I had it. (2235 views) | | | Tasted by kalissa on 8/22/2019 & rated 87 points: This Bourgogne is in a nice place now and will drink well for a couple of years still at least if stored properly. A good intro to the Jadot house style. A bit more rich and dark than other houses’ Bourgognes. A good entry level house wine which would be versatile with a variety of dishes.

The House of Louis Jadot has been producing exceptional Burgundy wines since its founding in 1859 by Louis Henry Denis Jadot. For the past 150 years Louis Jadot has continued as one of the great names of Burgundy and has gained international reputation for its superb red and white Burgundy wines. Louis Jadot is not only one of the largest producers of estate Burgundies of the Cote d'Or, it is one of the most celebrated exporters of premium Burgundies, owning close to 140 acres of vineyards from 24 of the most prestigious sites in Burgundy.Pinot Noir Varietal character (Appellation America) | Varietal article (Wikipedia)
Pinot Noir is the Noble red grape of Burgundy, capable of ripening in a cooler climate, which Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot will not reliably do. It is unpredictable and difficult both to grow and to vinify, but results in some of the finest reds in the world. It is believed to have been selected from wild vines two thousand years ago. It is also used in the production of champagne. In fact, more Pinot Noir goes into Champagne than is used in all of the Cote d'Or! It is also grown in Alsace, Jura, Germany, the U.S., Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Romania, Switzerland, Austria, Croatia, Serbia, Italy, and so forth, with varying degrees of success.
Pinot Noir is one of the world's most prestigious grapes. It is very difficult to grow and thrives well in France, especially in Champagne and Burgundy. Pinot Noir thrives less in hot areas, is picky on soil, and deserves some oak storage.
Pinot Noir, or Blauburgunder / Spätburgunder in German, is a blue grapevine - and, as the German name suggests, the grape comes originally from Burgundy in France.
The grape, which thrives in calcareous soils, is used primarily for the production of red wine, and it is widely regarded as producing some of the best wines in the world. The wine style is often medium-bodied with high fruit acidity and soft tannins. It can be quite peculiar in fragrance and taste, and not least in structure - which may be why it is referred to as "The Grapes Ballerina".
Pinot Noir is also an important ingredient in sparkling wines, not least in champagne since it is fruity, has good acidity and contains relatively little tannins.
The grape is considered quite demanding to grow. The class itself consists of tightly packed grapes, which makes it more sensitive to rot and other diseases.
Pinot Noir changes quite easily and is genetically unstable. It buds and matures early which results in it often being well ripened. Climate is important for this type of grape. It likes best in cool climates - in warm climates the wines can be relaxed and slightly pickled.
In cooler climates, the wine can get a hint of cabbage and wet leaves, while in slightly warmer regions we often find notes of red berries (cherries, strawberries, raspberries, currants), roses and slightly green notes when the wine is young. With age, more complex aromas of forest floor, fungi and meat emerge.
In Germany, Switzerland, Austria and Hungary, it often produces light wines with less character. However, it has produced very good results in California, Oregon and New Zealand.
With its soft tannins and delicate aroma, it is excellent for white fish, chicken and light meat. For the stored wines you can serve small game. Classic duck breast is a matter of course, a Boeuf Burgundy and Pinot Noir are pure happiness.
Pinot Noir loses quality by over-harvesting.
Pinot Noir is prone to diseases, especially rot and mildew. Viruses cause major problems especially in Burgundy.
Pinot Noir are large round grapes with thin skins. Relatively high in alcohol content. Medium rich tannins and good with acid.
As a young person, Pinot Noir has a distinctly fruity character such as raspberries, cherries and strawberries.
A mature Pinot Noir, the taste is different. Cherry goes into plum and prune flavors. It smells of rotten leaves, coffee, moist forest floor and animal wine. This must be experienced.
In warm climates you find boiled plum, some rustic, little acid.
If the grapes are over-grown, the wine will be thin, with little color and flavor.France Vins de France (Office National Interprofessionnel des Vins ) | Pages Vins, Directory of French Winegrowers | French Wine (Wikipedia)

Burgundy - The province of eastern France, famous for its red wines produced from Pinot Noir and its whites produced from Chardonnay. (Small of amounts of Gamay and Aligoté are still grown, although these have to be labeled differently.) The most famous part of the region is known as the Cote d'Or (the Golden Slope). It is divided into the Cote de Beaune, south of the town of Beaune (famous principally for its whites), and the Cote de Nuits, North of Beaune (home of the most famous reds). In addition, the Cote Chalonnaise and the Maconnais are important wine growing regions, although historically a clear level (or more) below the Cote d'Or. Also included by some are the regions of Chablis and Auxerrois, farther north.

# 2013 Vintage Notes:
* "2013 is a vintage that 20 years ago would have been a disaster." - Will Lyons
* "low yields and highly variable reds, much better whites." - Bill Nanson
* "Virtually all wines were chaptalised, with a bit of sugar added before fermentation to increase the final alcohol level." - Jancis Robinson
# 2014 Vintage Notes:
"We have not had such splendid harvest weather for many years. This will ensure high quality (fragrant, classy and succulent are words already being used) across the board, up and down the hierarchy and well as consistently from south to north geographically apart from those vineyards ravaged by the hail at the end of June." - Clive Coates
# 2015 Vintage Notes:
"Low yields and warm weather allowed for ample ripeness, small berries and an early harvest. Quality is looking extremely fine, with some people whispering comparisons with the outstanding 2005 vintage. Acid levels in individual wines may be crucial." - Jancis Robinson
# 2017 Vintage Notes:
"Chablis suffered greatly from frost in 2017, resulting in very reduced volumes. As ever, the irony seems to be that what remains is very good quality, as it is in the Côte d’Or. Cooler nights across the region have resulted in higher-than-usual acidity, with good conditions throughout the harvest season allowing for ripe, healthy fruit." - Jancis Robinson
# 2018 Vintage Notes:
"The most successful region for red Burgundy in 2018 was the Côte de Beaune. The weather was ideal in this area, with just enough sunlight and rain to produce perfectly balanced wines naturally." - Vinfolio
