    • Description

      The Louis Jadot Meursault is a classic white Burgundy from the famous Meursault appellation in the Côte de Beane. This prestigious Chardonnay is known for its rich style, refined minerality, and excellent aging potential. The chalky soils and aging in oak barrels give the wine its distinctive combination of power, elegance, and complexity.

      Honey, peach, flowers, and hazelnut

      In the glass, this Meursault shines with a clear golden-yellow color. The aroma opens with refined notes of flowers, honey, and subtle hints of cedarwood. The taste is rich and creamy with full notes of white peach, apricot, ripe apple, spices, and hazelnut. The fresh acidity ensures a beautiful balance, while the long, elegant finish underscores the great aging potential of this wine.

      Fully fermented and aged in oak

      The Chardonnay grapes are hand-harvested in the Meursault vineyards, located on chalk and marl soils between 230 and 360 meters above sea level. After a gentle pressing, the wine ferments entirely in oak barrels and ages for about fifteen months on its fine lees. This creates the characteristic creamy structure, refined wood integration, and impressive complexity for which Meursault is renowned worldwide.

      Perfect with lobster, creamy fish dishes, and poultry

      This Meursault pairs beautifully with lobster, scallops, turbot, cod with butter sauce, creamy fish dishes, poultry in cream sauce, and veal. It also makes an excellent combination with aged soft cheeses. Thanks to its aging potential, this wine is also a wonderful choice for the wine cellar.
