Tasting notes
The 2018 Vosne-Romanée Les Beaux Monts 1er Cru has a very well defined, mineral-driven bouquet that demonstrates more transparency than the Les Suchots, scents of seaweed and iodine permeating the black fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with gentle grip on the entry and touches of dark chocolate and truffle toward the second half, culminating in a very long, satisfying finish. This is an excellent Les Beaux Monts.

The 2018 Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Les Beaux Monts (Maison Louis Jadot) mingles notes of raspberries and berry fruit with scents of burning embers, rich soil, grilled squabs and caramelized citrus rind. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, velvety and layered, with a richly textural attack, powdery structuring tannins and a long, mineral finish.
About the producer
Louis Jadot is arguably the most consistent négociant house in Burgundy. It has managed to straddle both the entry-level and fine wine market, while retaining respect in both.
