Maison Louis Jadot:

Maison Louis Jadot is a winery that’s proud of its heritage and land. Founded in 1859 by Louis Henry Denis Jadot, Maison Jadot expanded rapidly, taking northern Europe by storm. When his son, Louis Jean Baptiste, took over in 1900, more change took place, and many vineyards were acquired, including Corton Charlemagne and Chevalier Montrachet Les Demoiselles. With the help of Rudy Kopf, founder of the Kobrand Corporation, Maison Jadot expanded even further, setting up shop in both England and the U.S. In 1985, Madame Jadot sold the company to Rudy Kopf’s family, ensuring a successful future for the company. The land is very important to Maison Louis Jadot, and making the terroir shine through is always a priority. Maison Jadot identifies with its Burgundy heritage, and all wines are Appellation Contrôlée. The winery controls about 380 acres of land in Burgundy, including Côte d'Or, Mâconnais and Beaujolais. Jacques Lardière, winemaster, works with Christine, Guillaume, and Audrey to ensure that the single-variety wines produced, including Pinot Noir for reds, Chardonnay for whites, and Gamay for Beaujolais, always produce the best, most consistent wines.

This turns decidely more fruited than the previous whites with it lemon curd and oaken spice nose. lean and focused in the mouth with just a touch of creaminess to the restrained yet pure fruit. Lovely if a bit short and suffering in comparison to the previous pair of wines

Wine Tasting NotesAn elegant expression of Moulin-a-Vent, with elegant aromas of rose, peony and subtle minerals which carry onto the palate. In the mouth, the wine is generous and tender, with sweet, ripe, lasting tannins on the finish. The wine approaches maturity in most vintages in ten to fifteen years.

Fine intensity here. It's bursting with lemon, mineral, butterscotch and vanilla notes, all mingling with the vibrant structure and harmonious profile. Lovely, lingering finish. Drink now through 2012. 101 cases imported. -BS Wine Spectator. A Chardonnay wine from Burgundy in France. 2003 Louis Jadot Savigny les Beaune les Guettes 750ml

Ripe and lush, with dark cherry, plum and raspberry fruit flavors augmented by hints of violets, mocha and minerals. Long, fruit-filled finish. Drink now through 2007. 500 cases made. -JM Wine Spectator. A Gamay wine from Burgundy in France. 2003 Jacques (Maison Louis Jadot), Chateau des Moulin a Vent Clos de Rochegres 750ml
