2017 Louis Jadot Vosne-Romanee Suchots

Les Suchots consists of two contiguous parcels between Romanee St Vivant and Richebourg on the south side, and Les Echezeaux on the north - so very much a wine world des res. The fact that it is merely premier rather than grand cru is explained by the fact that it sits in a gentle dip. The 2017 Jadot Suchots is very Vosne, ethereal, much more floral than fruit-driven. Concentrated and velvety in the mouth, yet very refined. (NT 21/02/19)

Neal Martin

The 2017 Vosne-Romanée Les Suchots 1er Cru is cut from a more elegant cloth than usual. The bouquet is nicely defined, offering perfumed dark cherry, cranberry and orange blossom aromas. The palate is crisp and well-defined on the entry with a fine bead of acidity, and quite linear and correct – toward the finish, I begin missing the sensuality and voluptuousness that I expect from this Premier Cru. Hopefully it will gain some weight once in bottle. 89-91 points
