Maison Louis Jadot's principles of vinification focus on the purest expression of each wine’s terroir, taking the lightest possible hand in winemaking and a restrained use of oak maturation.
Chassagne-Montrachet is one of the five villages of the Côte de Blancs. Premier Cru vineyards face east and southeast, and the soils are brown clay and limestone. Morgeot is among the top handful of Premier Cru vineyards in the commune; Clos de la Chapelle is an enclosed monopole on the site of an old chapel. The Pinot Noir grapes are fermented in tanks for up to one month, and then the wine is matured in oak barrels for 15 to 18 months.
A delicate, aromatic Pinot Noir with wildflower, ripe raspberry and spice aromas and flavors. The wine will develop in the bottle for 10 to 15 years.
