The Jadot Corton-Pougets Grand Cru 2002 is simply a fresh, pure expression of Pinot Noir with delicate aromas of mountain strawberry and raspberry on the nose, along with a pinch of earth and dried mint. It isn’t terribly complex, one has to reach to try to find any secondary aromas or flavors. Primarily red fruit in this charming medium-bodied red, with discreet spice on the finish. A fine pairing with last week’s Saint Patrick’s Day supper of corned beef and mashed potatoes.
