The 2023 Louis Jadot Beaune 1er Cru is a classic red Burgundy crafted from 100% Pinot Noir grown in Premier Cru vineyards of Beaune in Burgundy. Founded in 1859, the historic négociant-domaine is known for blending tradition with careful innovation, and today winemaker Frédéric Barnier oversees production with meticulous fruit sorting, adapted barrel aging, and evolving cellar techniques to suit warmer vintages. The 2023 growing season was hot and dry but benefited from timely June rain, producing healthy grapes and concentrated wines. In the glass, examples from the vintage show expressive aromas of raspberries, cherries, spices, rose petals, and licorice, with a medium-to-full-bodied palate that is vibrant, mineral-driven, and finely textured, supported by balanced tannins and bright acidity that promise graceful aging. Critics commonly rate these wines in the low-to-mid-90s range, highlighting their elegance, structure, and aging potential through the 2030s and beyond.
