2021 Jadot Saint Aubin

91 Points John Caro
In stock
A gorgeous white Burgundy from a village next to Montrachet. All the fruit is from a mixture of Premier Cru vineyards, so the quality is well above its weight and is matched by superb winemaking. Power and finesse bounce out of the glass with a fruit richness and minerality capable of delivering an experience not unlike its immediate Grand Cru neighbours in Montrachet. Serious stuff for a modest price, this is a gem to decant soon or cellar for a decade or so.

Its Origins

In Burgundy’s Côte d’Or, where the integrity of the producer is often more important than a renowned appellation or vineyard, Maison Louis Jadot is one of the most venerable, most trusted and revered wine houses. Jadot’s winemaking team, now led by Technical Director Frédéric Barnier, has maintained a balance of tradition and technology in winemaking that allows Jadot’s wines to express the subtle differences between terroirs that are the essence of fine Burgundy. Though officially retired in 2013, esteemed winemaker Jacques Lardière continues to work in an advisory role and on special projects. Founded in 1859, the house has grown through a long-term policy of acquisition or management of exceptional vineyard lands and owns 528 acres of vineyards, including nearly 280 acres of the Cote d’Or’s most prestigious Premier and Grand Cru plots.

What The Critics Say

90/100 Vinous, Neal Martin

"The 2021 Saint-Aubin Villages comes entirely from Premier Cru vineyards, although they decided to label it Village to avoid confusion. Unsurprisingly, it has a fine mineral-driven bouquet with plenty of vigour and a lovely touch of reduction. The palate is well balanced with a ripe, slightly oaky entry. There is good depth, and again, it's a bit reductive toward the finish, but I think this will pull through in the end." Drink 2024 - 2030
