Here the wood and menthol are no longer subtle on the liqueur-like aromas of red cherry, floral and spiced tea. The middleweight flavors possess a gorgeous mouthfeel that is lilting and vibrant while display excellent depth and persistence on the compact, serious and built-to-age finale. This is excellent and an unusually ripe 2021. Drink 2031+ -91-94pts Sweet Spot Outstanding, Allen Meadows Burghound

Perfumed nose of cloves, dried roses, rosemary and small red berry fruit. It’s medium-bodied, wonderfully silky in texture, with fragrance and elegance and fine tannins. Delicious and moreish. Drink or hold. -94pts, James Suckling

Aromas of sweet raspberries, cherries, licorice and spices preface the 2021 Beaune 1er Cru Clos des Ursules (Domaine des Héritiers Jadot), a medium to full-bodied, supple and seamless wine with good concentration and an elegant, complete profile. Along with the Cras, it's Jadot's finest Beaune cuvée this year. -91-93pts, William Kelley, Wine Advocate
