"The superb Beaune “Grèves” vineyard is a relatively recent addition to the Jadot lineup, as this two thirds of a hectare parcel came from the Domaine Robert Tourlière. The vines here are now over twenty-five years of age, and this is the best Beaune premier cru in the cellar this year. The bouquet is deep, complex and refined, as it offers up a mélange of red plums, black cherries, earth, woodsmoke, raw cocoa and a pungent topnote of violets. On the palate the wine is full-bodied, deep and beautifully focused, with a rock solid core of fruit, bright acids, fine-grained tannins, and outstanding length and grip on the complex and very pure finish. A Beaune of great class."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
Produces the world's most revered Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from a mosaic of tiny, terroir-defined climats. Its hierarchy of village, Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards makes site the ultimate expression of quality.
2005 in Burgundy is a legendary vintage from a near-ideal, dry growing season; both reds and whites are concentrated, structured and superbly balanced, with dense tannins and exceptional long-term aging potential.
A thin-skinned, terroir-sensitive red producing perfumed, silky and elegant wines of red-berry fruit and earthy complexity. It reaches its apogee in Burgundy.
