WINE DESCRIPTION
Louis Jadot Beaune 1er Cru Theurons is a prestigious red Burgundy that embodies the heritage and expertise of Maison Louis Jadot. From the celebrated Les Theurons vineyard—a collection of four historic parcels that gracefully descend the slope above Beaune and divide the northern and southern Premiers Crus—this wine reflects the unique terroir of the Côte de Beaune. As a proprietor of these prized vineyards since the 1830s, Jadot brings centuries of skill to crafting this wine. The destemmed grapes undergo a slow fermentation in vats for 3 to 4 weeks, followed by 18 months of careful aging in Cadus oak barrels from their own cooperage, resulting in a refined and complex wine that is a true expression of Beaune’s Premier Cru elegance.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
Louis Jadot Beaune 1er Cru Theurons reveals layers of red and black fruit, like cherry and blackberry, alongside subtle floral and earthy notes.Hints of spice and oak from aging in Cadus barrels add depth, balancing its structured tannins and vibrant acidity. The wine has an elegant, medium-bodied profile with a lingering, refined finish. Pair with classic French dishes like coq au vin, roasted duck, or beef bourguignon. It also complements earthy, mushroom-based dishes or grilled lamb, as well as softer, nutty cheeses like Brie or Camembert for a perfect culinary match.
