About This Wine

Louis Jadot

Mâcon Villages Chardonnay

Louis Jadot is one of the most trusted and revered wine houses in Burgundy's Côte d'Or. The wines of the region are noted for subtlety, and this is no exception. It shows off the depth of the region. Produced in the Mâconnais region of Burgundy, Mâcon-Villages is vinified with no oak contact to retain the elegant aromas and clean, fresh character that this region is prized for. The vineyard soils have a high percentage of chalk and limestone, which impart nuanced minerality. It's delicious and a great way to start exploring the legendary whites of one of the world's great wine regions.

Wine Region

Mâconnais

The rolling limestone hills of the Mâconnais in southern Burgundy are lined with vineyards and grassy meadows, where sheep and cows graze happily alongside the grapes. This pastoral paradise is best known for its white wines—especially Pouilly-Fuissé and Saint-Véran. Rounded and medium-bodied, these fruity whites tend to have creamy flavors of green apple and citrus. While Chardonnay dominates, some reds are also made here, mainly from Gamay. This is the southernmost stretch of Burgundy, adjoining Beaujolais, where Gamay reigns supreme. Red Mâcon wines tend to be light, zippy and fruit forward. They are best when young, so pop that cork instead of resting them in the cellar.
