Producer Description
In Burgundy’s Cf4te 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. Jadot’s winemaking team, now led by Technical Director Fre9de9ric Barnier, has maintained a balance of tradition and technology in winemaking that allows Jadot’s wines to express the subtle differences between terroirs that are the essence of fine Burgundy. Though officially retired in 2013, esteemed winemaker Jacques Lardie8re continues to work in an advisory role and on special projects.Founded in 1859, the house has grown through a long-term policy of acquisition or management of exceptional vineyard lands and owns 528 acres of vineyards, including nearly 280 acres of the Cote d’Or’s most prestigious Premier and Grand Cru plots.
To enjoy this Louis Jadot Montagny Les Chaniots Chardonnay, simply open the bottle carefully. Pour it into a wine glass, preferably a white wine glass, to allow it to breathe a bit. You can drink it on its own as an aperitif or pair it with a variety of foods. It goes well with seafood like grilled shrimp or light pasta dishes. When storing, keep it in a cool, dark place. Avoid exposing it to direct sunlight or extreme temperatures. This wine has been aged for 2 – 5 years depending on the vintage, fermented with care in oak barrels (one – third new), and aged on fine lees for 15 months before bottling, so handle it gently to preserve its quality.
