Gevrey-Chambertin

Gevrey-Chambertin is considered one of the most powerful addresses in the Côte de Nuits – and Louis Jadot's Village wine shows why this reputation is justified: Pinot Noir with backbone, not just charm.

The négociant house Louis Jadot from Beaune has been among the most reliable interpreters of Burgundy since 1859. In Gevrey-Chambertin, Jadot works with grapes from several parcels on the characteristic soils of limestone and clayey marl – a combination that gives the Pinot Noir more structure and depth than in the lighter appellations further south.

In the glass, it displays a dark cherry red color with a violet rim. The nose offers aromas of blackberry, black cherry, and a hint of undergrowth, along with delicate spice notes of cinnamon and pepper. On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied, with firm but ripe tannins, lively acidity, and a long, slightly earthy finish with hints of cedar.

Recommendation: Serve at 16–17 °C. Pairs well with braised beef cheeks, coq au vin, wild duck, or a mature Époisses. Drinking window 2024–2030 – with some cellaring, the texture will become even smoother.
