94 Decanter

"Jadot's Genevrières shows abundant ripe pear and floral notes, a hint of butter, and toasted hazelnut. The texture is rich but not heavy, with balanced acidity and good length. It is noticeably more substantial than the village Meursault but has a marvellous balance and better wood integration. The grapes were gently crushed before pressing and fermented on native yeasts in cask (one-third new). It should open up with two or three years in the bottle and drink well for at least a decade."

92-94 Wine Advocate

"Another high point in the portfolio is the 2022 Meursault 1er Cru Genevrières (Domaine Louis Jadot), a beautiful wine that delivers aromas of minty pear, beeswax and buttery pastry, followed by a medium to full-bodied, satiny and suave palate that's layered, concentrated and penetrating. Winemaker Frédéric Barnier and his team have produced another strong portfolio chez Jadot, with a relatively abundant crop of charming, pure and demonstrative wines, with alcohol back in more normal territory after the highs of 2018, 2019 and 2020. As I've written before, in the cellar, foudres and 500-liter barrels now complement classic 228-liter pièces, a further evolution adapting to warmer, riper vintages. A cold room also helps chill down any fruit that's too warm when it enters the winery. 2022 is also the second vintage of organic conversion for the Domaine Louis Jadot and the Domaine Gagey."

"Mid lemon yellow. The bouquet has a refinement above that of Charmes, though the palate does not deliver quite as much energy, and the finish broadens out. The Genevrières still has acidity but is not all together at the moment. Drink from 2030-2037."

91-93 Neal Martin - Vinous

"The 2022 Meursault Les Genevrières 1er Cru came from a more recent barrel than others, so the wood influence is a little more evident, though simpatico with the fruit concentration. The palate is well-balanced with a sapid entry. Not a complex Genevrières, though there is a surprising steeliness that you would not expect from such a growing season. Impressive length…I feel that this Meursault will have more to give with bottle age."
