Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Les Petits Monts Maison Louis Jadot 2011

The wine

The vineyard "Les Petits Monts" is located just above that of Richebourg (where the famous Romanée-Conti is located). The grapes of this premier cru are destemmed, then vinification is done in open vats for about a month, before maturing in oak barrels for 18 months. This premier cru of Vosne-Romanée is little known due to limited production. And yet it produces wonderfully round wines with good aging potential.

About the Producer Louis Jadot

Based in Beaune, it combines historic stature with remarkable vitality, continuing to attract leading figures of the wine world to shape and interpret its many terroirs. Now owned by an American family, the wines are crafted under the assured direction of Frédéric Barnier, who safeguards the house’s hallmark precision and consistency. These unwavering standards are what sets Maison Jadot apart in Burgundy. With 225 hectares under vine and representation across 130 appellations, not only in the Côte d’Or but also in the Mâconnais and Beaujolais, wine lovers can expect genuine pleasure at every price level, always easily identifiable by the iconic Bacchus head on the label. The estate favours traditional winemaking methods, with slow fermentations and extended ageing. Chemical herbicides are prohibited and yields are strictly limited. A house where scale never eclipses identity, and tradition continues to shape every bottle.
