Price on 09/07/10: $24.99 |
Stew Leonard's Wines of Norwalk Notes
Esteemed winemaker Jacques Lardière selects grapes from different parcels of land in the Cote d’Or mainly at Villages and Premier Crus levels to produce a truly outstanding wine. Grapes are hand-picked and vinified and the final blend is a wine which can be enjoyed young yet will continue to evolve favorably up to ten years. Complex and well balanced, featuring flavors of red berries, a nice and balanced structure. Very aromatic finish with savory nuances of leather and tobacco.
About Louis Jadot
Founded in 1859 by Louis Henry Denis Jadot, Maison Louis Jadot has always been situated in the heart of the vineyards, in the center of Beaune. Recently installed in an old building from the 19th century, the offices are situated above very old cellars from the 14th century connected with the "Couvent des Jacobins" cellars. This "Couvent" is the ideal venue for receiving visitors at Maison Louis Jadot. Managed by three generations of the Jadot family and then by Mr. André Gagey for more than 30 years, Maison Louis Jadot is now directed by his son Mr. Pierre Henry Gagey, assisted by Mr. Jacques Lardière, who has been Louis Jadot's wine maker for more than 20 years.
