✨ wine.spec_sheet
Representing the depth and complexity of Burgundy's historic terroirs, Louis Jadot's 'Vieilles Vignes' (Old Vines) white wines are sourced from carefully selected parcels where the vines have reached a mature age, typically over 30 years. These deep-rooted vines draw rich mineral character from the classic clay-limestone soils of the region, yielding smaller, highly concentrated grapes. The winemaking philosophy balances tradition and modernity; the juice is fermented and aged in a combination of stainless steel vats to preserve fresh, vibrant fruit flavors and French oak barrels from Jadot's own Cadus cooperage to impart structure, subtle spice, and a round, creamy texture. This approach honors the centuries-old Burgundian heritage of showcasing terroir through the pure expression of the grape.
