Louis Jadot
Louis Henry Jadot founded the famous Maison that bears his name in 1859. Nevertheless, we have to go back to 1826 when the Jadot family from Belgium acquired the Clos des Ursules to find the first roots of this family in Bourgogne.
He was succeeded in 1900 by Jean-Baptiste Jadot, and it was he who invested heavily in the Burgundy vineyards, among which he acquired part of Corton-Charlemagne and Chevalier-Montrachet les Demoiselles, to name but the most renowned.
In 1985, it was decided by Madame Jadot to sell the Maison to the KoBrand Company, their Importer in the USA.
To this day, Maison Jadot is still based at Beaune in Jacques' world-famous Couvent des Jacobins and Château.
The climats, a veritable mosaic, which dot the Burgundy vineyards, and which belong to Maison Jadot, extend over some fifteen hectares. These "home-grown" climats are still cultivated using the "méthode traditionnelle raisonnée": no deep ploughing, but surface work and sometimes a horse for the least accessible vines.

Description Louis Jadot Echezeaux Grand Cru 2014.
The town of Flagey Echezeaux is located south of Clos de Vougeot.
The village is in the plain, like that of Gilly les Citeaux, opposite the Clos de Vougeot and borders the town of Vosne Romanée.
The vineyard runs along the wall of Clos Vougeot, and extends to the mountain.
The part in the plain can benefit from the Vosne Romanée appellation. On the hillside, two great vintages follow one another: Grands Echezeaux and Echezeaux.
The limestone soil is particularly suited to the production of Grands Crus. The “Echézeaux” Grand Cru vineyard, facing East-South / East, is located just above the Grands Echezeaux.
