Clos des Ursules is a walled two-hectare parcel inside the Beaune 1er Cru of Les Vignes Franches, and Louis Henry Denis Jadot bought it in 1826, thirty-three years before the Jadot firm itself existed. Before that it belonged to the Ursuline convent in Beaune, which is where the name comes from. It sits mid-slope on Beaune's southern hill toward Pommard, below Clos des Mouches and Les Aigrots, and it is a monopole farmed by Domaine des Heritiers Louis Jadot, so every bottle comes from this one enclosure. 2003 was the year of the great European heat wave, with August temperatures pushing 40C and picking starting in mid-August, a full month early; the reds are rich, deep-colored and generous rather than classically Burgundian, and the best of them have aged far better than anyone expected. This bottle comes from a private cellar and is fully mature, so treat it as a wine to drink rather than keep, and give it a gentle decant.

More about Louis Jadot

Founded in 1859, Jadot is one of Burgundy's great estates and négociants, with 600 acres scattered across the region's best vineyards—Chablis to Moulin-à-Vent. They make hundreds of wines, but each bottle carries the iconic Bacchus emblem and the weight of nearly two centuries of accumulated wisdom. Burgundy without the pretension.

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Roast lamb, duck breast with cherries, mushroom tart, or Epoisses and other washed-rind cheeses.

Tasting Profile

Dried black cherry, plum, sweet spice and forest floor. Full-bodied for Beaune, low in acidity, with soft resolved tannins and a warm, savory finish.
