Description
The Beaune 1er Cru Clos des Couchereaux Louis Jadot is an elegant Premier Cru from the heart of the Côte de Beaune. This exceptional Pinot Noir comes from the historic Clos des Couchereaux vineyard, where the combination of calcareous soils and an excellent location ensures a wine with great finesse, concentration, and impressive aging potential. For generations, Louis Jadot has been among Burgundy's absolute elite, and with this Premier Cru, the winery demonstrates why it is so highly regarded worldwide.
Black cherries, red fruit, and refined earthy notes
This Premier Cru has a deep ruby red color and a complex bouquet of black cherries, ripe raspberries, and red currants. Elegant notes of violets, subtle spices, cedarwood, and a slight earthy minerality also emerge. On the palate, the wine is rich and powerful, with silky tannins, vibrant acidity, and a long, refined finish where fruit and terroir beautifully intertwine.
Premier Cru from a historic vineyard
Clos des Couchereaux is one of Beaune's Premier Cru vineyards and benefits from calcareous soils with excellent drainage. The grapes are harvested by hand and carefully selected. After slow fermentation, the wine ages for approximately fifteen to eighteen months in French oak barrels. This creates a beautiful balance between ripe fruit, structure, and subtle oak influences, without losing the character of the Pinot Noir.
Perfect with veal, poultry, and mushrooms
This Beaune Premier Cru pairs exceptionally well with veal, duck breast, pheasant, and other refined poultry dishes. Its elegant character also shines through with mushroom risotto, truffle dishes, and aged cheeses. For optimal taste, it is recommended to decant the wine about an hour before serving.

Founded in 1859, Louis Jadot is one of Burgundy's most renowned wineries. With over 225 hectares of its own vineyards and a strong focus on terroir, the house produces wines known worldwide for their quality, elegance, and excellent aging potential.
