Robert Parker (94)

The 2022 Chambertin Grand Cru (Maison Louis Jadot) is quite gourmand, bursting with aromas of smoky dark berries, cherries and spice box, followed by a medium to full-bodied, fleshy and enveloping palate that’s rich and textural, framed by powdery structuring tannins.

Vinous (95)

The 2022 Chambertin Grand Cru takes time to settle in the glass. The exuberant bouquet has brambly red berry fruit, briar and a tang of shucked oyster shells, gaining intensity in the glass, though it doesn’t quite match the precision of the Clos-de-Bèze. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red fruit, quite muscular in style as it approaches its bold finish. Very good length and impressive power, yet my affection lies with the Clos-de-Bèze this year.

Burghound (96)

More subtle wood treatment surrounds the ripe yet cool aromas of red and dark wild currant, earth, plenty of sauvage and forest floor elements. The rich, dense and impressively powerful and imposingly scaled flavors display both ample minerality and a taut muscularity on the overtly austere and even more structured finale. This is an old school Chambertin and very much a ‘buy and forget you own it’ wine.
