    The wine

    Ce premier cru nuits-saint-georges vient du domaine Louis Jadot. Il s’étend sur 200 hectares (dont 131 plantés en rouge). Les vendanges sont manuelles pour des vignes âgées de 35 ans. Ce vin est issu à 100% de pinot noir. La production annuelle de la maison avoisine les 8 millions de bouteilles.
    A la dégustation, ce vin montre une jolie robe rubis profond. Le bouquet est plein d’arômes de fruits rouges et épices. Puissant et bien structuré, il a de bons tannins. Servez-le avec un petit salé aux lentilles, un cœur de veau ou un typique bœuf bourguignon. Son potentiel de garde est de 10-12 ans environ.

    Information about domain Louis Jadot

    Louis Henry Denis Jadot created his own house in 1859 at a time when winemaking was flourishing in Burgundy and the region was creating its structure. Quickly, he developed a bustling trade business with northern European countries, especially because his family was originally from Belgium. His son Louis-Jean-Baptiste followed him and developed the vineyard, while his grandson Louis-Auguste favoured exporting the wine to English-speaking countries after the war. In 1954, André Gagey joined the flourishing family business and took over the reins in 1962 following the premature death of Louis-Auguste. In 1970 - a significant date for the house - Jacques Lardière, a young œnologist, joined the team and gave the house the burst of energy it needed.
    In 1985, Madame Jadot decided to ensure the company's financial future and sell it to the Rudy Kopf family, the long-time, US importer of the company's wines. Today, Thomas Seiter manages the famous house, located in the heart of Beaune. Along with Château des Jacques in Moulin-à-Vent and Domaine Ferret in Pouilly-Fuissé, Maison Louis Jadot has several other vineyards to its name, coving some 154 hectares of vines in Côte d’Or, the Mâconnais and Beaujolais. We can count 70 hectares in Côte d’Or which are essentially all grand and premier cru plots shared between Domaine Louis Jadot, Domaine Gagey, Domaine des Héritiers Louis Jadot and Domaine du Duc de Magenta.
