Maison Louis Jadot (or Louis Jadot) is a winery that was founded by Louis Henry Denis Jadot in 1859. The first vineyard bought by the Jadot family is the Beaune vineyard, Clos des Ursules, in 1826.

The family wine company produces and markets Burgundy wine. It operates both its own vineyards and buys grapes from other growers. It controls 270 hectares (670 acres) of vineyards in Burgundy (including Beaujolais Crus), and produces only Appellation d'Origine Contrôlée (AOC) wines.

Louis Jadot owns vineyards in the Mâconnais region: Domaine Ferret in Fuissé and Château des Jacques in Moulin à Vent within the Beaujolais region. In 1996, Louis Jadot partnered with Tonnellerie Vicard andcreated its own cooperage called Cadus, in order to produce French oak barrelscrafted in the Burgundian tradition. The label of Maison Louis Jadot’s wines are characterised by the instantly recognisable image of Bacchus’s head, an image that has become, in many ways, the signature of the house and a symbol of its identity, whatever is in the bottle.

Jacques Lardiere

For 42 years, Lardière was responsible for the wine-making and bottling of all Maison Louis Jadot wines, as well as handling all of the Louis Jadot domaine vineyards. He traveled around the world and became a great source of inspiration and knowledge for many oenologists. Lardière constantly and consistently expressed the originality of each Burgundy terroir through the wines by favoring a natural approach to producing wine and above all, making wine with feeling. In an interview in 2008, Lardière explained: “Some wines are like mystery books that you read fast, enjoy and forget. Burgundy is like a classic that you take in slowly, assimilate and always remember.”In 2012,Lardière retired, and turned over his responsibilities as Technical Director of Maison Louis Jadot to Frédéric Barnier, who he had been mentoring and grooming in the previous years.

In 2013, Maison Louis Jadot announced its first venture outside of France with the purchase of the Résonance Vineyard, located in Oregon’s Yamhill-Carlton AVA. Lardière was so excited about the project that he decided to come out of retirement to oversee the production of the wines,taking his years of experience in Burgundy winemaking and applying it to Oregon terroir. The Resonance portfolio will debut over the next two years.

Chambolle-Musigny lies just north ofVougeot and South of Morey Saint-Denis. There are 24 Premiers Crus and 2 GrandsCrus. It is a very well know municipality despite its small size.
