Maison Jessiaume 2007 Chardonnay (Corton-Charlemagne)

Tight and still young, a wine that brings out the intense acidity of the vintage, hiding its power and potential at the moment. But both are there, offering a concentrated wine that will develop slowly as befits its Grand Cru status.  — R.V.  (7/1/2010)

Maison Jessiaume 2008 Pinot Noir (Chapelle-Chambertin)

  1. $105
An impressive wine, full of smoky fruit, concentrated black cherry flavors and rich acidity. It has a complete feel to it, the tannins well integrated into the heart of the wine. There is a final freshness, liveliness, but don’t be fooled—age it for at least seven years.  — R.V.  (5/1/2011)

  1. $115
At the pinnacle of Gevrey-Chambertin, Chambertin Grand Cru produces immensely powerful wines. This Jessiaume fits the profile well, while also having delicious juiciness to go with the dark tannins and acidity. The result is stylish as well as concentrated. Age for 10 years at least.  — R.V.  (5/1/2011)

This is heavy on the wood, but it’s so rich in fruit as well. An immensely concentrated wine that’s powered by its dark tannins and flavors of ripe blackberry, loganberry juice and spice. The acidity is straight as an arrow, giving the wine good lift.  — R.V.  (8/1/2012)

Maison Jessiaume 2008 Chardonnay (Corton-Charlemagne)

  1. $80
An appropriately rich wine, full, toasty and dense. The fruit is beautifully balanced with ripe acidity, just a touch of spice, citrus and an opulent, full-bodied character. It will certainly age, but is already very drinkable.  — R.V.  (5/1/2011)

This is a balanced, ripe and wood-aged wine that is intense and seductively attractive. It has a yellow fruit flavor, with acidity and a superb edge of wood. This should age well.  — R.V.  (8/1/2012)

Maison Jessiaume 2010 Chardonnay (Corton-Charlemagne)

  1. $173
The power of Corton-Charlemagne is apparent in this dense, ripe wine. Rich and generous, this selection has tropical fruit flavors that are balanced by citrus notes, and the wood influence acts as subtle support.  — R.V.  (4/1/2013)

Maison Jessiaume 2008 Pinot Noir (Corton Perrières)

  • Cellar Selection
  1. $65
Structured and concentrated, this is a wine for long-term aging. It has powerful dark tannins, acidity, a touch of leather and farmyard, all adding to the complexity of this dense wine. Age for at least six years.  — R.V.  (5/1/2011)
