2024 Louis Jadot "Couvent des Jacobins" - ブルゴーニュ - 6 Bottles (0.75L)

Couvent des Jacobins Produced and Bottled by: Louis Jadot (Mis en bouteilles par Louis Jadot, Beaune - France) Region of Origin: Vin de Bourgogne (Bourgogne, France) Grape Variety: Chardonnay 100% Alcohol by Volume: 12.5% vol.

a view reveals a lively and brilliant straw yellow color, golden with slight greenish reflections that emphasize its youth and perfect wine integrity. It maintains a fluid, agile, and elegant texture in the glass; the bouquet is of great harmony and typical Burgundian character. It opens with immediate notes of white and yellow crunchy flesh fruits (Golden apple, pear, peach) and fresh citrus hints of mature lemon and grapefruit. With aeration, delicate scents of acacia white flowers emerge, accompanied by a subtle mineral vein of flint and light noble notes of fresh butter, toasted hazelnut and a hint of vanilla carried by partial wood aging. Palate: the entry is soft, rounded and enveloping, immediately well balanced by a lively and taut acidity that gives great freshness and lift to the sip. The structure at 12.5% vol. is perfectly balanced and never heavy. The finish is pleasantly persistent, clean and sapid, with a finale that recalls fresh fruit and hazelnut.

Curiosità su Cantina e "Couvent des Jacobins": The cuvée is named after the historic Convento dei Giacobini (Dominican) in Beaune, purchased by Louis Jadot in 1859. It is precisely inside these ancient cellars that the Maison has preserved and matured its most precious bottles for decades.
Assemblaggio Identitario: "Couvent des Jacobins" is one of Louis Jadot’s symbolic wines: it represents the quintessence of the Burgundy terroir as it combines Chardonnay grapes selected from different top subzones of the region (from Côte de Beaune to the Mâconnais), offering a perfect balance between freshness and structure.
La Sigillo di Bacco: The head of the Roman wine god, crowned with grapevines, has dominated the label since the mid-1800s, making every Louis Jadot bottle an icon instantly recognizable in restaurants and wine shops worldwide.
