Chambertin Grand Cru 2018, Burgundy's icon for great occasions

Reserved for lovers of fine wines seeking the rare balance between power and grace, the Chambertin Grand Cru 2018 from Domaine Louis Jadot stands as a benchmark of the Côte de Nuits. It is aimed at those looking for a bottle of character for haute cuisine: a 100% Pinot Noir red that ages with panache and reveals, vintage after vintage, the nobility of a legendary terroir. Its intense aromatic signature, carried by more prominent new oak than on the Clos de Bèze, delivers a sculpted stature. Serving at 15-17°C with 30 to 60 minutes of decanting reveals its true measure, softens a tannic framework built for ageing and opens the way to an exceptional tasting. In your cellar as well as on your table, this cuvée showcases the best of Burgundy, with the exacting standards of a Grand Cru designed for gastronomy and longevity.

Key strengths that make the difference on the palate

• Emblematic Grand Cru – A prestigious Burgundy appellation, guaranteeing a fully expressed terroir and high ageing potential.
• Pinot Noir at its best – Single variety, refined texture and aromatic complexity serving an enduring elegance.
• Pronounced new oak – A more marked élevage in new oak than on the Clos de Bèze, for definition, breadth and a sense of depth.
• Structure and longevity – A built tannic framework, ideal for patient cellar evolution and reaching peak maturity.
• Controlled service – At 15-17°C, with 30 to 60 minutes in a decanter, the tannins integrate and the aromas fully unfold.

Signature, origin and production notes

This 100% Pinot Noir red wine comes from the Côte de Nuits, in the heart of Gevrey-Chambertin, within the designated Chambertin Grand Cru area. The 2018 vintage finds a distinct expression here, combining intensity and poise. The élevage is notable for a pronounced use of new oak, more marked than on the Clos de Bèze, providing volume and structure without ever betraying the grape's identity. At 14% vol., ripeness translates into perfectly channelled breadth, promising a fine evolution. Offered in 75 cl bottles, this Grand Cru emphasizes precision, with intense aromatics and dense texture. We recommend thoughtful service between 15 and 17°C and decanting for 30 to 60 minutes to refine the texture and reveal the bouquet's complexity. Together, these elements compose a gastronomic, cellar-worthy wine capable of ageing gracefully over the years.
