"In 1998, Maison Louis Jadot purchased its Montrachet from two growers, producing a total of eight barrels (200 cases). Its acacia, spice, stone, and mineral nose gives way to a lively, broad-shouldered, medium to full-bodied personality. This magnificent wine offers layers and layers of white ripe fruits, hints of toasted nuts, gravel, and poached pears. It wonderfully unites muscle with grace, and explosive, expressive fruit with refinement."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
Produces the world's most revered Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from a mosaic of tiny, terroir-defined climats. Its hierarchy of village, Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards makes site the ultimate expression of quality.
Chassagne-Montrachet is a village AOC in Burgundy's Cote de Beaune with numerous Premier Crus, renowned above all for rich, nutty, mineral Chardonnay whites, though it also makes firm Pinot Noir reds.
The world's most versatile white grape, producing everything from steely Chablis to rich, oaked whites. Its neutrality makes it a mirror of terroir and winemaking, and the foundation of white Burgundy and Champagne.
