Maison Louis Jadot
One of Burgundy's largest and most respected négociant-grower houses, making a vast range of red and white Burgundy from its own vineyards and purchased grapes.
About Maison
Maison Louis Jadot is among the most important négociant-grower houses in Burgundy, founded in 1859 when Louis Henry Denis Jadot established the firm in Beaune, building on family vineyards owned since 1826, including the monopole Clos des Ursules. As a négociant-éleveur, Jadot both farms its own estate vineyards and buys grapes from across the region, producing an exceptionally broad portfolio from generic Bourgogne up to flagship grand crus. The house controls around 270 hectares of vineyards in Burgundy and Beaujolais, an unusually large estate holding for a négociant. In 1985 the firm was bought by the Kopf family, owners of its long-time American importer Kobrand Corporation, while the Gagey family has provided continuity in management and winemaking. Jadot's pinot noir reds and chardonnay whites are known for reliability and classical structure across every price level, making the house a dependable reference for both everyday and cellar-worthy Burgundy.

Editorial notes
A go-to for consistent, fairly priced Burgundy across the range; the village and premier cru bottlings offer excellent value, while grand crus reward cellaring.
