Exhibiting aromas of sweet red berries and cherries mingled with rose petals, orange zest, spices and smoke, the 2022 Corton-Pougets Grand Cru (Domaine des Héritiers Jadot) is medium to full-bodied, layered and concentrated, with a deep core of lively fruit, refined tannins and a long, resonant finish. This is always one of the highlights of the range, and this year's rendition is no exception.
Cask sample. Mid ruby. Fruit seems a little raw. The whole wine is extremely youthful and unresolved. It’s a bit too young for me even to guess at its likely evolution. Tannins dominate light cherry fruit. (JR)
The 2022 Corton-Pougets Grand Cru has a tightly wound bouquet with dark plum, raspberry coulis, incense and light sous-bois scents. It takes quite a few swirls of the glass to get the aromas going. The palate is medium-bodied with a structured, assertive opening. The tannins are slightly chalky, lending this Corton-Pougets edginess/nerve. Fine mineralité towards the finish yet tightly wound and almost curmudgeonly in its nascent state, this Grand Cru will demand long-term aging.
Not too deep in colour but with an appealing, almost savoury nose. Plenty of body here, with some dark cherry. The savoury aspect continues on the palate, some tannins, not the fullest bodied but with pedigree. I have such fond memories of this vineyard across the decades. Drink from 2030-2038.
