2017 Louis Jadot Domaine des Heritiers Vignes Franches 'Clos des Ursules' Monopole
Burgundy /Burgundy /Pinot NoirSize: 750ML
"Very beautiful aromas of strawberries, flowers and stones. Medium to full body, firm and chewy tannins and a long, flavorful finish. Shows lovely, linear brightness and texture."
- 95 Points, James Suckling
"The 2017 Beaune 1er Cru Clos des Ursulesis the high point of Jadot's Beaune portfolio, offering up an incipiently complex bouquet of raspberries, plums, candied peel, licorice, grilled meats and warm spices. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, deep and layered, with an ample core of fruit that's structured around a youthfully firm chassis of chalky tannin, concluding with a long finish. This should age very gracefully."
- 93 Points, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
"Clos des Ursules is a walled vineyard that sits within the Vignes Franches premier cru on the southern side of Beaune, and it has been part of the Jadot estate since 1826. It's very much a limestone-based style with plenty of acidity and minerality, joined by sappy, floral redcurrant, red cherry and pomegranate flavours, all framed by oak."
