(95-97 points) The 2020 Chapelle-Chambertin Grand Cru has an exquisite bouquet with beautifully-defined brambly red fruit, undergrowth and minerals, an oyster shell scent becoming more intense with aeration. The palate is...

The 2020 Louis Jadot Chapelle Chambertin Grand Cru is a notable Pinot Noir from the renowned Burgundy region of France, specifically the Cote de Nuits sub-region and Gevrey Chambertin appellation. This wine, produced by Louis Jadot, is a red wine with a cork closure and an alcohol content of 13.5%.

The wine has received high praise from several professional reviewers. Robert Parker's Wine Advocate awarded it an impressive 95 points, noting its "dense purple" color and "excellent acidity." The reviewer highlighted the wine's structure, attributing it to the ancient vines from which it is made, and remarked on its "very long finish."

Jasper Morris from Inside Burgundy gave an even higher score of 97 points, echoing similar sentiments about the wine's structure and acidity. Morris mentioned the wine's "broad shoulders" and its ability to keep "on kicking on with wonderful nuances," suggesting a wine that promises complexity and depth over time.

Vinous, represented by Neal Martin, also rated this wine at 97 points. Martin described the bouquet as "exquisite," characterized by "brambly red fruit, undergrowth, and minerals," with an "oyster shell scent" that intensifies with aeration. He praised the wine's medium-bodied palate, "chalky tannins," and "harmonious and cohesive finish," forecasting that it will drink well between 2027 and 2060.

Wine Spectator provided a slightly lower yet still commendable score of 94 points. The review highlighted the wine's "solidly structured yet fluid" nature, with "concentrated flavors of cherry, black currant, tobacco, earth, and mineral." The reviewer noted its "fine balance and vibrant acidity," which helps to define the flavors and carry them through a "long, resonant finish." The production is limited, with only 80 cases made and 40 cases imported.

Overall, the 2020 Louis Jadot Chapelle Chambertin Grand Cru is a well-structured, complex Pinot Noir with significant aging potential, praised for its balance, depth, and nuanced flavors.
