Information
The Jadot house, in Beaune, is one of the most prestigious in Burgundy; it produces nearly all the Burgundy appellations. Now owned by a wealthy American family, the wines are produced under the management of Frédéric Barnier who ensures great regularity for the bottles. This is indeed why the Jadot house stands out in Burgundy: over 225 hectares and 130 appellations (Côte d'Or, but also Mâcon and Beaujolais), the vast price range will satisfy everybody’s tastes. The legendary head of Bacchus is always on the label. The domain uses traditional wine-making methods: a long fermentation and maturing. Chemical herbicides are prohibited and yields are strictly limited.
Meursault is undoubtedly the capital of Burgundy white wines. Some Premiers Crus are world renowned (Les Perrières, Les Charmes, Les Poruzots, Les Genevrières, Gouttes D’Or) and all combine subtlety and strength and the option to be enjoyed young or a few years later. There is a small production of reds and the white Meursault have a very heady bouquet, typically bitter or dry almond, foliage, crust of warm bread, apple reinette. On the palette they are very consistent with an abundant softness, almost creamy. The taste lingers for considerable time.
