The Jadot house, in Beaune, is one of the most prestigious in Burgundy; it produces nearly all the Burgundy appellations. Now owned by a wealthy American family, the wines are produced under the management of Frédéric Barnier who ensures great regularity for the bottles. This is indeed why the Jadot house stands out in Burgundy: over 225 hectares and 130 appellations (Côte d'Or, but also Mâcon and Beaujolais), the vast price range will satisfy everybody’s tastes. The legendary head of Bacchus is always on the label. The domain uses traditional wine-making methods: a long fermentation and maturing. Chemical herbicides are prohibited and yields are strictly limited.

The exposed Clos du Roy to the south-east of the Chenôve commune benefits from a dry soil composed of marl, chalk, and clay. The grapes are vinified for four weeks before ageing in oak barrels for 12 to 15 months. This wine has an intense colour and an explosive bouquet of wild blackberry, dried fruit, and blackcurrant. In time, musky notes will develop. The palate is quite tannic with a nicely supple character. Will pair well with a roasted meat dish or a refined cheese.
