Louis Jadot: Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru ‘Abbaye de Morgeot’

Experience the grandeur of the Côte de Beaune with the Louis Jadot Chassagne-Montrachet Premier Cru ‘Abbaye de Morgeot’. This is a quintessential luxury White Burgundy, hailing from a historic monopole or key holding within the prestigious Morgeot vineyard, known for producing wines of immense richness and profound depth.

Wine Characteristics & Critic Notes

The deep clay and marl soils of Abbaye de Morgeot lend a powerful, full-bodied character to the Chardonnay, which is meticulously handled and aged in French oak to enhance its complexity without overshadowing the fruit.

• Colour: A luminous pale gold with a green tinge.
• Aromatics: Concentrated and expressive, offering a complex mix of white fruit, candied lemon, white blossom, and the subtle, creamy influence of high-quality oak and lees aging.
• Taste: Broad, fleshy, and opulent on the palate. The texture is suave and layered, perfectly integrated with lively acidity and a pronounced minerality that ensures focus and a long, elegant finish. A wine of true collector value.

Serving & Food Matches

Decant briefly or allow to breathe before serving at cellar temperature (12-14°C). This wine is an investment in your cellar.

• Perfect Matches: Ideal with classic British celebratory dishes or rich French cuisine.
• Aging: Excellent longevity, typically 10 years plus.
