2024 Beaune, Clos des Ursules, Domaine des Heritiers de Louis Jadot

The 2024 Beaune Clos des Ursules 1er Cru has a delightful, well-defined and quite complex bouquet with a little more florality and mineralité than the Boucherottes or Cras. Very focused. The palate is very well balanced with just the right amount of acidity. A mixture of red and black fruit laced with white pepper and desiccated orange peel, it feels assured on the finish. A worthy follow-up to the excellent 2023. ~ (93) Neal Martin, Vinous 1-1-2026

Notes of plums, dark berries, orange zest, spices and beetroot introduce the 2024 Beaune 1er Cru Clos des Ursules (Domaine des Héritiers Jadot), a medium- to full-bodied, supple and suave wine that's attractively polished and complete, concluding with good length on the finish. ~ (93) William Kelley, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate 2-26-2026

Light to mid cherry red. Sweet and fragrant with wild strawberries and red cherries. Open and expressive – inviting. All that scent on the palate, too. Light-bodied, with fine tannins but perhaps just a little bit lean though I think it will take on flesh in the bottle. One person’s lean is another one’s elegant and this has a little more depth than the Beaune Aux Cras. Improves with air. ~ (17) Julia Harding, JancisRobinson.com 10-29-2025

More subtle wood influence is present on the much more floral-suffused aromas of the essence of black cherry, plum and violet. The plump and round but attractively energetic flavors exude a subtle bead of minerality that adds to the appeal of the dusty, compact and balanced finale. This could use better depth but Clos des Ursules has an outstanding track record for extended longevity. ~ (93) Allen Meadows, Burghound 4-10-2026
