Some of the Cote de Nuits premier crus are better balanced, with richer, riper fruit than some of the most expensive grand crus. Jadot's Chambolle-Musigny Les Amoureuses is one of the finest examples of this vineyard. In addition to its impressively saturated color, the wine possesses great sweetness, a deep, medium-bodied feel on the palate with layers of concentration, sweet, fully mature tannin, and a long, vibrant, admirably-endowed finish. It requires 2-4 years of cellaring, but should keep for 15-20 years. Jadot produced a high percentage of successful wines in 1993. There are also disappointments, particularly in the lower appellations which have turned out tough and tannic. There is no Jadot house style, save for rich, well-delineated, structured wines that stand the test of time. As a vintage, 1993 is less consistently excellent than 1990 or 1989.
In 1988, all the grand crus were bottled without filtration. That vintage was followed in 1990 and subsequent vintages, with all the premier and grand crus bottled without fining or filtration.
