Chambolle-Musigny Les Baudes 1er Cru Domaine Louis Jadot 2017

Wineadvocate

The 2017 Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Baudes (Domaine Gagey) opens in the glass with a youthfully reticent bouquet of red cherries, raspberries, licorice and spices. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, fleshy and nicely concentrated, with good depth at the core underpinned by juicy acids and fine, chalky tannin. This is typically one of the finest premiers crus in the Jadot range, and this year's rendition is no exception.

Vinous

The 2017 Chambolle-Musigny Les Baudes 1er Cru has an airy, well-defined, transparent bouquet that is more feminine and refined than the Les Sentiers. The palate of sappy red fruit is medium-bodied and harmonious, offering fine acidity and ample red currant and cranberry fruit toward the finish. This is one of the best Premier Crus that I tasted from Jadot this vintage.'

Paler pink purple, the bouquet has a refinement befitting Chambolle. It is another Jadot wine on the cusp of cherry and raspberry but the fruit stretches a very long way across the palate and it finishes well, without too much tannic structure, and just enough acidity. Tasted: November 2018.
