RATINGS

93+ The Wine Advocate

..a huge, explosive wine. Endless layers of flavor burst from the glass...boasts intense dimensions of spice and minerality to buffer the juicy, expressive fruit. Hints of butter and hazelnuts add complexity on the finish...

92+ Stephen Tanzer

...Fatter, sweeter and oilier than the Pucelles but less floral and perfumed. Impressively chewy and dense but distinctly clenched today...

91-93Burghound.com

...beautifully well-delineated flavors possess an almost painful intensity with the classic pungent minerality of a classic Clos de la Garenne, all wrapped in a finely detailed finish of outstanding length...

17Jancis Robinson

...Molten gold on the nose. Racy and nervy. Long. Some grating texture. Very youthful. Some bitter lemon character.

PRODUCER

Louis Jadot

Maison Louis Jadot is one of Burgundy’s most respected negociants. Founded in 1859 by the Jadot family, the prestige and quality of the estate’s wines were well established in the 19th century. The family continued buying highly desirable vineyards in the 20th century. In 1985 the estate was sold to Rudy Kopf, Jadot’s American importer. Located in Beaune, the estate has 336 acres of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Gamay. Though all the maison’s wines are known for their high quality, signature wines are the Bonnes Mares, Chambertin-Close de Beze, Chevalier-Montrachet les Demoiselles, Corton-Charlemagne, Le Montrachet and Musigny. Pierre-Henry Gagey is president.

REGION

France, Burgundy, Côte d'Or, Côte de Beaune, Puligny-Montrachet, La Garenne

La Garenne is a 24-acre Premier Cru vineyard in the Puligny-Montrachet appellation of Burgundy’s Cote de Beaune. It is up the slope and west of many of the appellation’s Premier Cru vineyards, and in fact wasn’t farmed as a vineyard until the mid-20th century, when the land was cleared of rocks and scrub. The elevation is 300 to 380 meters.

TYPE

White Wine, Chardonnay, 1er (Premier) Cru

This white variety originated in Burgundy, but is now grown around the world. Its flexibility to thrive in many regions translates to wide flavor profile in the market. Chardonnay is commonly used in making Champagne and sparkling wines.
