Chapelle Chambertin Louis Jadot

Vineyards situation : Gevrey Chambertin is the most northern of the great communes of the Côte de Nuits. There are 26 Premiers Crus and 8 Grands Crus. Half of the Premiers Crus of Gevrey lie on the Grands Crus east facing slope ; the other half occupy a steep, southeast facing slope to the north, with calcareous clay soils.

Characteristics : The « Chambertin » vineyard is situated on the east facing slope between Latricières Chambertin Grand Cru and Chambertin Clos de Bèze Grand Cru.

Wine making : This wine is fermented in vats for 3-4 weeks and aged 18-20 months in oak barrels before bottling.

Winemaker's comments / Gastronomy : Louis Jadot produces a rich and sumptuous wine with an extraordinary delicacy, elegance and finesse. The silken texture finishes in refined, complex notes of berries, earth and oak. It will perfectly match with sophisticated dishes like meat ‘en sauce', game and strong cheeses.

Preservation : This wine will certainly improve up to 20 to 25 years in cellar.
