Jadotfest 22; 12/1/2022-12/2/2022 (The Medlar): An unusual wine, and a treat to taste it. Lovely nose - some bramble, some sous bois. Nose more inviting than the palate - crunchy acidity - cranberry perhaps? I'd love to try this again, perhaps when not surrounded by wines with less bracing acidity.

2022 Jadotfest (Medlar, Chelsea): Shy on the nose initially, then some cherry and crabapple coming through. Very dry and quite tannic when drunk, not very giving really, and especially tight on the finish. Not unenjoyable, but this tart, youngish wine didn't appreciate being drunk with the two Ursules.

Richard's Jadotfest (The Medlar, Chelsea): A little less ripe than the preceding wine, cranberry, touch of meatiness, slightly leaner, raspberry, spice, fresh acids, grippy, medium length finish.

Jadotfest 2022 (Medlar, London): Really on the red fruits here on pouring; real cherry and cranberry character. Later a couple of pipette drops of grapefruit juice in the mix. The palate is a little less giving but suspect an awkward age thing rather than anything else. Compact but perfectly formed. Slightly prefer this to the '05 Ursules but not much in it.

Very light flavored wine but with some tartness, and fruit diminished. More fruit on second day. Actually very nice and a welcomed change from California pinots, more about structure and body. Drink now.
