About the winery

Louis Henry Denis Jadot founded Maison Louis Jadot in 1859. But even before then, the story of Maison Jadot had its roots in the vineyards, with the Jadot family's purchase of the Clos des Ursules, a Beaune Premier Cru, in 1826.

The négociant house, under the guidance of Louis Henry Denis Jadot, expanded rapidly, with a focus on the markets of northern Europe, an area he knew well as his family came from Belgium. His son, Louis Jean Baptiste, took over the management of the company in 1900, and expanded operations by buying numerous vineyards, including Corton Charlemagne and Chevalier Montrachet Les Demoiselles.

The next generation, under the guidance of Louis Auguste Jadot, developed new export markets, particularly those in England and the US, with the help of Rudy Kopf, the founder of the Kobrand Corporation. In 1954, André Gagey joined the company as Louis Auguste Jadot's deputy. On the latter's premature death in 1962, André Gagey succeeded him as Maison Jadot's director. In 1970, Gagey took on a young winemaker, Jacques Lardière, as his assistant. And, in 1984, André Gagey's son, Pierre-Henry, joined the company. In 1985, in order to ensure the company's future, Madame Jadot decided to sell the company to the family of Rudy Kopf, Jadot's US importer.

Pierre-Henry Gagey became president of Maison Louis Jadot in 1992.All the wines made under the Maison Louis Jadot label are Appellation Contrôlée wines from across the region. The vineyards of Maison Louis Jadot are now scattered across 154 hectares of Burgundy, from the Côte d'Or to the Mâconnais and down into Beaujolais.

Thanks to the quality of our wines we have forged strong links, both in France and around the world, with sommeliers, restaurateurs, wine merchants, importers, agents and wine lovers.

Professionals’ opinions

   Vinexus - Infinity of Wine Duitsland
This wine is very typical of the Pinot Noir grape grown in its mother land, with its style of little red fruit aromas in its youth evolving to more complex aromas of spices and undergrowth with age. This wine is produced throughout Burgundy. The Louis Jadot Bourgogne Pinot Noir Couvent des Jacobins “cuvée“ comes from a balanced blend of Côte d'Or, including Hautes Côte de Beaune and Hautes Côte de Nuits, Côte Chalonnaise (Mercurey) and Auxerrois (Irancy ). The wine will be quite complex because of the different origins of the grapes : Côte de Nuits, Saône et Loire and Irancy will provide structure and tannins whilst Hautes Côtes will give characteristic fruitiness. Our Bourgogne Pinot Noir Couvent des Jacobins is vinified in vats by different growers with different styles (depending on the area where the grapes come from). The wine is then aged partly in oak barrels and partly in vats during the 9 to 16 months before bottling.

Light fruit, medium body with soft tanins, a pretty agreable and easy Bourgogne.
