Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy, November 2021

(94--97 points) This is the only Jadot bottling of Clos St-Denis this year, as there is no longer a negociant version. A fine bright pink edged purple, far from the deepest but very fine. The nose too shows more elegance...

Vinous, December 2021

(95-97 points) The 2020 Clos Saint-Denis Grand Cru possesses one of the finest aromatics from Jadot this year with pixelated red bery fruit and perfectly integrated oak. The palate is medium-bodied with fine grain...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, January 2022

(94 - 96 points) The 2020 Clos Saint-Denis Grand Cru (Domaine Gagey) is one of the best wines in the cellar chez Jadot this year. Mingling aromas of red berry fruit with hints of rose petal, exotic spices, vanilla pod and...

The 2020 Louis Jadot Clos St Denis is a remarkable wine that showcases the elegance and complexity of Pinot Noir from Burgundy, France. With its deep red color and enticing aromas, this wine is a true masterpiece.

On the nose, the Clos St Denis offers a captivating bouquet of dense pomegranate and black cherry fruit. These rich fruit notes are complemented by delicate hints of anise, liquorice, and a delightful freshness reminiscent of fresh flowers. It is a sensory experience that immediately captivates the senses.

The texture of this wine is ripe and lush, creating a velvety mouthfeel that is incredibly gratifying. However, it is the well-integrated tannins and the extract that truly set this wine apart. These elements give the wine depth and structure, allowing it to age gracefully for many years to come. Indeed, this is a wine that has the potential to evolve and improve over decades.

The 2020 Louis Jadot Clos St Denis comes from a 0.17ha parcel located in the original part of the Clos. This specific vineyard is owned by Jadot but technically belongs to Domaine Gagey. It is important to check the label to ensure that you are getting the authentic Clos St Denis.

Renowned wine publications have recognized the excellence of this wine. Decanter awarded it an impressive score of 95 points, praising its dense fruit flavors and potential for long-term aging. Robert Parker's Wine Advocate also gave it a high score of 96 points, noting its multidimensional nature and vibrant fruit. Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy and Vinous both rated it even higher, with scores of 97 points, acknowledging its elegance, purity, and superb aromatics.

The 2020 Louis Jadot Clos St Denis is a wine of exceptional quality that wine enthusiasts and collectors alike will greatly appreciate. It is a true gem from Burgundy, showcasing the best of what the region has to offer.
