Many of my greatest wine experiences have been in front of a bottle of aged white Burgundy. This vertical of Jadot’s Corton-Charlemagne was a very pleasant and unexpected surprise. Best of all, the wines showed beautifully, even those from less fortunate years. One of things I admire most about Jadot, Pierre Henry-Gagey and Jacques Lardière is their willingness to include wines from very difficult vintages into verticals like these, always a bit of a risk. Most producers cherry pick and only show their very best vintages, but Jadot is willing to take more chances than most, and it usually works in their favor, as these tasting notes make abundantly clear.
