| Winery: | Louis Jadot |
| Description: | Louis Jadot has been producing fine wines from Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Gamay since 1859. This here is a modern expression of Pouilly-Fuissé showing vibrant Chardonnay fruit flavors with notes of melon, citrus and minerals, gently touched with oak, ending in a fresh, silky finish. Maison Louis Jadot has long maintained agreements with several small quality-driven growers exclusively in the communes of Pouilly and Fuissé. The final blend combines oak-fermented and steel-fermented lots which creates a particularly complex Pouilly-Fuissé, with greater fullness than is usually found in wines of this appellation. Serve with shellfish, white fish, salads, cheeses or on its own as an aperitif. Founded in 1859, by Louis Henry Denis Jadot, he was the first of his family to arrive in Beaune from Belgium in 1794 and soon began purchasing Premier and Grand Cru vineyards in Burgundy. With grape growing a part of his heritage, Louis Henry set about gaining experience first in the cellars, in the evaluation of wines, and then in the vineyards, in the study of viticulture. The house of Louis Jadot has grown through a long-term policy of acquisition or management of exceptional vineyard lands and currently owns 528 acres of vineyards, including nearly 280 acres of the Cote d'Or's most prestigious Premier and Grand Cru plots. In Burgundy's Côte d'Or, where the integrity of the producer is often more important than a renowned appellation or vineyard, Maison Louis Jadot is one of the most venerable, most trusted and revered wine houses. Jadot's winemaking team, now led by Technical Director Frédéric Barnier, has maintained a balance of tradition and technology in winemaking that allows Jadot's wines to express the subtle differences between terroirs that are the essence of fine Burgundy. Though officially retired in 2013, esteemed winemaker Jacques Lardière continues to work in an advisory role and on special projects. |
