2021 Jadot Beaune 1er Cru Les Theurons

92 Points Antonio Galloni's Vinous
In stock
An exceptional quality, ageworthy Red Burgundy from a Premier Cru vineyard. Les Theurons (other producers call it Teurons, with no "h") is one of the finest spots in Beaune, and a strong candidate for Grand Cru promotion. Its dry, limey gravels produce a wine with delicate flavours and defined aromatics of red fruits, spice and earth, built upon ageworthy acidity and deep tannic structure. Bright-fruited but bony in its youth, this beautiful wine from an undervalued vineyard offers a great cellaring potential for the price.

Its Origins

In Burgundy’s Côte d’Or, where the integrity of the producer is often more important than a renowned appellation or vineyard, Maison Louis Jadot is one of the most venerable, most trusted and revered wine houses. Jadot’s winemaking team, now led by Technical Director Frédéric Barnier, has maintained a balance of tradition and technology in winemaking that allows Jadot’s wines to express the subtle differences between terroirs that are the essence of fine Burgundy. Though officially retired in 2013, esteemed winemaker Jacques Lardière continues to work in an advisory role and on special projects. Founded in 1859, the house has grown through a long-term policy of acquisition or management of exceptional vineyard lands and owns 528 acres of vineyards, including nearly 280 acres of the Cote d’Or’s most prestigious Premier and Grand Cru plots.

What The Critics Say

90-92/100 Vinous, Neal Martin

"The 2021 Beaune Les Theurons 1er Cru is fragrant on the nose with perfumed crushed strawberry and redcurrant scents. The oak is neatly integrated and becomes more floral with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with a pleasant tartness on the entry. Showing fine weight here, it's cohesive with a satisfying edginess keeping it on its toes through the finish. This is a fine Beaune." Drink 2024 - 2042

89-91/100 Parker's Wine Advocate, William Kelley

"Notes of sweet raspberries, cherries and rose petals introduce the 2021 Beaune 1er Cru Les Theurons (Domaine Gagey), a medium-bodied, ample and fleshy wine that's delicate and fine-boned this year."

17/20 Jancis Robinson MW

"Cask sample. Pale garnet. Slightly smudgy nose. Still quite chewy with fine tannins and marked but not excessive acidity. Needs time but should be a vigorous pleasurable drink eventually." Drink 2028 - 2040
