Louis Jadot Vosne-Romanée Premier Cru Les Chaumes 2014
Suggested Food Pairings:
Maison Louis Jadot is one of the most trusted and revered wine houses in Burgundy’s Côte d’Or. Frédéric Barnier, Jadot’s esteemed winemaker, and his team balance tradition and technology, focusing on the purest expression of each wine’s terroir. These principles of vinification take the lightest possible hand in winemaking, and produce the essence of fine Burgundy. Founded in 1859, the house now owns 528 acres of vineyards, including 280 acres of the Cote d’Or’s most prestigious Premier and Grand Cru plots.
This premier cru from one of the greatest villages in Burgundy, it is surrounded by grand cru vineyards and has produced a luscious, ripe Pinot Noir. It’s generous in both black fruit flavor and structure, showing great potential for aging.
Tasting Notes
The 2014 Vosne Romanée 1er Cru les Suchots has a tightly wound bouquet with light mineral tones that become more accentuated with time. The palate is ripe on the entry and here there is more Suchots character with lovely raspberry and crushed strawberry fruit, orange zest and mandarin.
Food Pairing
Game and elegant red meats.
