Louis Jadot Bourgogne Chardonnay 2024

Drink it now or cellar for up to 10 years. No need to decant but best to open it half an hour before service.

Maison Louis Jadot is one of Burgundy's most popular wine producers, boasting a prestigious history that dates back to 1859. Based in Beaune, the estate owns approximately 220 hectares of vineyards across various appellations, including Premier Cru and Grand Cru sites in the Côte d'Or. Its wines are widely acclaimed for their elegance and perfect balance between tradition and technological innovation.

The Chardonnay grapes for this wine are sourced from lesser-known sub-regions of Burgundy. After vinification, the wine rests in stainless steel tanks for a year before bottling. The result is a refined, clean white wine that faithfully reflects the regional style, combining the richness of wines from the Côte d’Or and Côte Chalonnaise with the fruity vibrancy of the Mâconnais.

Its aromatic profile is broad and expressive, featuring notes of citrus and green apple interwoven with sweeter hints of apricot, pear, and pineapple, followed by mineral and floral touches. On the palate, it is crisp, mineral, and fresh, with a pleasant, juicy liveliness. It boasts good acidity and a long, elegant finish. Try it with shellfish, grilled white fish, Chicken Caesar salad, or pasta primavera.
