Louis Jadot - Chablis 1er Cru 2020
The continental climate (very cold in winter and hot in the summer with frosts in spring) and the marly limestone soils combine to create the unique character of Chablis wines. For this wine 100% Chardonnay grapes sourced entirely from Premier Cru vineyards are vinified in stainless steel tanks. The various wines are blended after a traditional vinification. Aging lasts 8 to 10 months in stainless steel vats before being bottled.
This wine is bright and minerally, with apple, pear citrus fruit flavors, finishing with mouthwatering acidity.
Louis Jadot Description
Founded in 1859, by Louis Henry Denis Jadot, he was the first of his family to arrive in Beaune from Belgium in 1794 and soon began purchasing Premier and Grand Cru vineyards in Burgundy. With grape growing a part of his heritage, Louis Henry set about gaining experience first in the cellars, in the evaluation of wines, and then in the vineyards, in the study of viticulture. The house of Louis Jadot has grown through a long-term policy of acquisition or management of exceptional vineyard lands and currently owns 528 acres of vineyards, including nearly 280 acres of the Cote d’Or’s most prestigious Premier and Grand Cru plots. In Burgundy’s Côte d’Or, where the integrity of the producer is often more important than a renowned appellation or vineyard, Maison Louis Jadot is one of the most venerable, most trusted and revered wine houses.
