Louis Jadot Couvent des Jacobins Chardonnay 2023 Dry White Wine 13%
š„ Louis Jadot Couvent des Jacobins Chardonnay 2023 Dry White Wine brings together the freshness and gentle richness that make white Burgundy so appealing at the table. Made from 100% Chardonnay, it is a dry still white with fruit at its centre, a softly creamy texture and a measured touch of oak. The wine offers enough weight to accompany a full meal while keeping a fresh, balanced character from the first glass to the last.
š Maison Louis Jadot produces this regional Bourgogne wine in France. The technical sheet for the 2023 vintage identifies vineyards in the CĆ“te dāOr and MĆ¢connais as its sources. Combining fruit from these parts of Burgundy gives the cuvĆ©e an accessible expression of Chardonnay, with freshness supported by texture and structure. The bottleās traditional cream label carries the houseās familiar Bacchus emblem, while the neck label clearly identifies the 2023 harvest.
šŖµ The producerās general winemaking protocol describes traditional vinification followed by approximately eight to ten months of maturation, with some components in oak barrels and others in stainless steel tanks. These components are blended before bottling. Steel helps preserve the fruit and lively character; the barrel-aged portion contributes shape and roundness. This is partial oak maturation, with the final wine balancing both approaches.
š½ļø Serve Louis Jadot Couvent des Jacobins Chardonnay 2023 Dry White Wine at 10ā12°C alongside roast pork with crisp crackling, the pairing recommended on the 2023 technical sheet. Roast chicken and white fish are also useful choices for a relaxed dinner. Allow a refrigerated bottle a few minutes to warm slightly in the glass so its fruit, creamy texture and restrained oak can become clearer. This bottle contains 750ml at 13% alcohol and closes with a screw cap. It contains sulphites and makes a thoughtful choice for a dinner invitation or a gift to someone who enjoys dry white Burgundy.
