With a deep colour Louis Jadot produces a powerful wine with intense red fruits and spices aromas. It is a structured wine with a very nice balance. It will perfectly match with sophisticated dishes like red meat ""in sauce"" (boeuf bourguignon) marinated game or quite strong cheeses."
Vinous: 91-93 Points
The 2017 Echézeaux Grand Cru which comes from Les Rouges du Bas has a far more complex bouquet compared to the Clos de Vougeot; marmalade and dried quince scents infuse the exotic red berry fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with tart red berry fruit on the entry laced with orange peel and touches of tobacco. I admire the density of this Echézeaux - not the most nuanced one produced in 2017 but it has plenty of substance and aging potential. This should be interesting in 10 years’ time.

From a parcel in Les Rouges du Bas the 2017 Echézeaux Grand Cru (Domaine Louis Jadot) offers up attractive aromas of smoky red fruits spices charcuterie and toasty new oak. On the palate the wine is medium to full-bodied firm and expansive with a broad open-knit profile. While the wine was quite structural when I tasted it I suspect it will flesh out by the time it's bottled. This is often one of the sleepers chez Jadot so I look forward to revisiting it.
