The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine Louis Jadot is the undisputed leader in Burgundy, a prestigious House like few others that manages to create a wide variety of wines with the same quality and standards of excellence each year. With more than 150 years of history, a multiple of great terroirs and an unbroken passion for the vinification of great french wines, this splendid institution is still one of the region’s best, thanks to its classic yet effective winemaking style that knows how to bring out the very best of terroir and vintage.
Wine Generous and fruity, the 2015 Red Monthélie Sous Roches delivers a bright version of a pinot noir, in a half-powered style. Its freshness, its still juvenile red fruit notes and its ease compose a clever balance between finesse and consistency. A godsend for this great vintage! It can already be enjoyed paired with a roasted white meat.
Vinification Hand harvested, 100% de-stemmed, maceration in open vats for 3 to 4 weeks, punching of the cap twice a day during fermentation, aged for 18 months in oak barrels from the cooperage of the estate, 1/3 of which are new.
