Louis Jadot Burgundy Classics
A wine list by
Gary Cowan, Manager Fine Wines Internation & National Sales Director Vineyard 7 & 8
I was at a dinner at Farallon Restaurant in San Francisco, to celebrate the 150th Anniversary of Louis Jadot, hosted by the president of Maison Louis Jadot, Pierre-Henry Gagey. They poured some spectacular wines for a small group of us at the dinner.

The 1997 Chevalier was bright, pinpoint perfect and showing beautifully. The classic minerality and firm acidity in perfect balance.

If you can't locate a bottle of the 1959 Beaune Theurons you shoould give serious consideration to the excellent and utterly charming 2006 vintage. It might even age as well as the 1959.

At our dinner we drank a superb vintage 1993 of the Chambolle Musiny Les Amoureuses. The 2006 might surpass it. Already showing superb aromatics, this is a wine that will require time to develop but the wait will be worth it.

My favorite wine of the night was the spectacular 1985 Beaune Clos des Ursules. The 2006 vintage still needs time to develop but it shows much promise at this stage of its young life.
