Wine Reviews

The 2024 Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru Les Demoiselles (Domaine des Héritiers Jadot) is another real success, offering up notes of wet stones, white flowers, crisp orchard fruit and nutmeg. Medium- to full-bodied, satiny and pure, with excellent depth and cut, it concludes with a long, mineral finish.

The 2024 Chevalier-Montrachet Demoiselles Grand Cru has a clean, precise and focused bouquet. It is very controlled, perhaps not the most flattering Chevalier at this primal stage, though delineated and focused. The palate is precise and intense, yet it is blessed with a surfeit of elegance and refinement. There is a real peacock’s tail on the finish that stretches on and on. One of Jadot’s best wines in 2024.

The palate is well balanced with a slightly honeyed entry, fine acidity, weight and concentration and a saline finish. I appreciate the cohesion and presence of this Chevalier-Montrachet.

Without question, the top white in the Jadot cellars and a consistent reference for the appellation. The 2024 vintage of Les Demoiselles is on a par with the best from this vineyard, with pronounced aromas of passionfruit and Mirabelle plums and notes of hazelnut, wax and smoke. The texture has a delicate balance between vibrantly fresh acidity and pleasantly plump weight on the palate – a delightful wine.

A creamy, harmonious white, revealing lemon cream, honeydew melon, hazelnut and pastry aromas and flavors that all come together.
