An Iconic Grand Cru Red Burgundy

The JADOT LOUIS CHAPELLE CHAMBERTIN RED is a flagship wine from Maison Louis Jadot, hailing from the prestigious Chapelle-Chambertin Grand Cru in the Côte de Nuits.

Sommelier’s Tasting Notes

A brilliant ruby red, this wine offers an exquisite and perfumed bouquet. Expect deep aromatics of black cherry, spice, earth, and rose petals.

• Nose: Intoxicating notes of brambly red fruits, underbrush, and minerals, with an evolving scent of oyster shell upon aeration.
• Mouthfeel: Features a silky, velvety texture, offering extraordinary delicacy and finesse. The palate is layered with ripe red fruit and earthy minerality.
• Structure: Structured by fine-grained, chalky tannins, the wine maintains a consistent finish with body and depth, ensuring exceptional ageing potential.

Food Pairing & Decanting

Ideal for pairing with sophisticated dishes like meat ‘en sauce’ and game. Serve at 16-17°C. While delicious now, a period of cellaring (10-20 years) is highly recommended to appreciate its full complexity.
