This is classic mature Burgundy drinking; supple, mid-weight, and beautifully resolved: sweet red berries, spice, a dusting of cocoa, and those fine, silky tannins gliding towards a savoury, earthy finish. Theurons is often thought of as the sweet spot among Beaune’s premiers, sitting just under the line of Grèves and frequently the most 'Vosne-like' - silk over muscle.
Louis Jadot is one of Burgundy’s most recognisable and respected names, producing wines that range from humble Bourgogne to some of the most revered Grands Crus. Founded in 1859, the house has always focused on expressing terroir with clarity and precision, rather than chasing fashion or excess oak. Today, under the guidance of Frédéric Barnier, Jadot farms over 150 hectares of vineyards (many of them Premier and Grand Cru) and also works closely with trusted growers across the Côte d’Or and beyond.
What the critics say:
"Site-typical smoked meat mingles with ripe cherry in a Jadot 2006 Beaune Theurons that displays the fine-grained, practically silken tannins of so many wines in this collection. A slick of glycerin heightens the senses of both sweetness and polish here, and while the wine is anything but weighty, it displays a gratifying sense of richness of both fruit and meat stock in its finish. I would plan to enjoy it anytime over the next 5-7 years."
