Tasting notes
More reserved than the outgoing Chapelle-Chambertin, the 2024 Chambertin Clos de Bèze Grand Cru (Domaine Louis Jadot) unwinds in the glass with notes of raspberries, incense and petals. Medium- to full-bodied, deep and layered, with a fleshy core, powdery tannins and an expansive finish, it's a fine effort.

The 2024 Chambertin Clos-de-Bèze Grand Cru comprises one 450-litre cask this year. It is backward, almost obdurate on the nose, tightly packed with red fruit, crushed stone and light cedar aromas, hints of black tea emerging with time. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins and fine acidity, bearing similitude to the Clos Saint-Jacques. Quite linear towards the finish, this is nicely focused and though it does not possess the weight and density of a top vintage this is a classy, sophisticated Clos-de-Bèze.

A single 450-litre barrel only. Mid crimson. Strawberries and alpine strawberries make up a low key but beguiling bouquet. No more than medium bodied, stylistically the great class of this appellation is there, but perhaps not the majesty.
