2022 Jadot Savigny les Beaune 1er Cru Les Dominodes

Pinot Noir
Its Origins
In Burgundy’s Côte d’Or, where the integrity of the producer is often more important than a renowned appellation or vineyard, Maison Louis Jadot is one of the most venerable, most trusted and revered wine houses. Jadot’s winemaking team, now led by Technical Director Frédéric Barnier, has maintained a balance of tradition and technology in winemaking that allows Jadot’s wines to express the subtle differences between terroirs that are the essence of fine Burgundy. Though officially retired in 2013, esteemed winemaker Jacques Lardière continues to work in an advisory role and on special projects. Founded in 1859, the house has grown through a long-term policy of acquisition or management of exceptional vineyard lands and owns 528 acres of vineyards, including nearly 280 acres of the Cote d’Or’s most prestigious Premier and Grand Cru plots.
What The Critics Say
92/100 Decanter, Charles Curtis MW
"The wonderful La Dominode Vineyard is wholly contained within the 1er Cru ‘Haut Jarrons’ (which is seldom labelled as such). Jadot has 1.75ha in this sector of Savigny with its steep slope and thin soils. Planted in 1902 these are the oldest vines of the Domaine and their concentration and complexity show on the nose, which is chalky, floral, pretty, and spicy. The wine has so much energy, with bright red berry fruit, charming, fresh, fragrant and refined."
90-92/100 Vinous, Neal Martin
"The 2022 Savigny-lès-Beaune La Dominode 1er Cru is a notch more intense on the nose than the Clos des Guettes, but sideby-side, I find the latter imbued with greater charm. The palate is well-balanced with slightly powdery tannins, attractive and quite plush black cherry and mulberry fruit. It gains weight towards the finish but retains its smooth and sleek texture. Like the Clos des Guettes, this will be difficult to resist in its youth." Drink 2025 - 2038
17/20 JancisRobinson.com, Julia Harding MW
"Cask sample. Pale crimson. Quite a complex, savoury nose (cf the sweetness of Clos des Guettes). Really quiet opulent fruit on the palate. Should appeal to burgundy lovers even when quite young. Quite complex and satisfying." Drink 2026 - 2036
