Tasting notes
The 2023 Chablis Montée de Tonnerre 1er Cru has some reduction on the nose, though there is good definition and fruit concentration underneath. The palate is a bit out of sorts. It is quite volatile on the mid-palate with an almost sesame-like finish. This starts well but spins off track. Tasted blind at the BIVB offices in Chablis.

Tank sample. Aroma is less stony but riper-fruited than in the Fourchaume. Lemony freshness. Relatively light-bodied but persistent in its freshness. Lots of tension for a vintage without high acidities. Tight and lightly grippy on the finish. (JH)
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.
