Description

The Louis Jadot Beaune Grèves Le Clos Blanc 1er Cru is a stunning expression of Chardonnay from the esteemed Beaune region of Burgundy. This wine, sourced from the 'Le Clos Blanc' within the famous Grèves Premier Cru vineyard, is a testament to the excellence and tradition of the Louis Jadot domaine. The label itself, with its elegant design, hints at the sophistication that awaits within. Its pale golden hue speaks of a white wine made with meticulous care. On the nose, you are greeted by a symphony of aromas - ripe orchard fruits such as pear and apple, combined with delicate floral undertones and hints of citrus zest. Subtle oak notes add depth and complexity, contributing to a harmonious bouquet. The palate is a journey of flavours, mirroring the aromatic profile with added notes of minerality. This complexity is further enhanced with a rich texture and a well-balanced acidity, which lends to a long, memorable finish. The Beaune Grèves' characteristic terroir lends the wine a unique sense of place that is both refreshing and captivating. Its style is traditionally Burgundian, characterized by a balance between elegance, complexity, and terroir expression. Being a dry wine, it pairs impeccably with a variety of dishes, from rich seafood like lobster and scallops to creamy poultry dishes and mature cheeses, especially goat cheese. It's also a great companion for roasted vegetables or dishes with mushroom sauces. This is a wine that deserves to be enjoyed slowly and savoured, allowing each sip to reveal its intricate tapestry of flavours. With an alcohol percentage of 13.5%, this wine has a remarkable integration of alcohol, showcasing the vineyard's balanced growing conditions. We recommend serving the wine at a temperature of approximately 12°C to unlock its full potential. Its elegance makes it suitable to drink immediately, although it can also age gracefully for several years. This wine provides an authentic and unforgettable taste of Burgundy's terroir. The wine comes in a traditional bottle with a cork finish, enhancing the drinking experience. It is an excellent choice for both novice wine lovers seeking to discover premier cru Burgundy wines and seasoned connoisseurs looking for a wine that exemplifies quality and the tradition of Burgundy.
