Dix ans de garde sont largement profitables à ce vin majestueux qui équilibre à merveille la race de ses arômes à une acidité vivifiante. More info
Louis Jadot has a heritage of uncommon vines. But above all, the famous Beaunoise has acquired plots on the most prized grands crus of Burgundy such as Le Montrachet. On a clayey-limestone soil, rich in draining pebbles, the Chardonnay here produces wine with legendary concentration. Grapes are usually harvested very late. The acidity on the palate balances this and gives it a wonderful finish. A mythical wine to taste after at least 10 years’ aging.
Montrachet Grand Cru Maison Louis Jadot serve at a temperature of 11°C. It will pair perfectly with the following dishes: Homard grillé, Bouchées à la Reine, Ecrevisses.

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.
