From the well-established Maison Louis Jadot comes this 2014 Corton-Charlemagne, widely considered to be one of the world`s finest whites. Jadot’s vineyard is located in the very heart of the appellation, and it is one of their oldest, owned by the maison since the 19th century. The Chardonnay grapes are harvest by hand and fermented in oak barrels, one third of which are new. The wine is then aged on its fine lees for 15 months before bottling.

Vinous
(from estate vines in Pougets, facing southeast): Bright yellow. Reticent but pure scents and flavors of ginger, gentian, fresh herbs and menthol convey strong soil-driven energy. More about minerals than fruit but this wonderfully juicy wine boasts terrific thrust and early personality, not to mention outstanding flavor intensity and generosity. FYI: the cellar price for this wine is 80 Euros, while the Montrachet sells for 500. You make the call.Stephen Tanzer1st September 2016
