The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine An undisputed benchmark in Burgundy, Louis Jadot is a prestigious house like few others, spreading the excellence of its know-how around the world. With over 150 years of history, a multiplicity of great terroirs and an unbroken passion, this splendid institution is happily charting its course, thanks to a classic winemaking style that brings out the best in both terroir and vintage.
Wine The 2017 red Beaune 1er cru Theurons is a lovely achievement, ready to drink or keep for another 3 to 5 years. Well opened and very seductive at this stage, it offers the brilliance of a beautiful ripe and deep grape, refined in an infused style, with notes of stewed fruit. This wine maintains its purity and balance without lacking freshness, with fine, present tannins. A fine specimen from the Beaune area, which lives up to its 1er Cru status.
Vinification Hand-harvested, 100% de-stemmed, vinified in open vats, aged for around 18 months in oak barrels.
