Louis Jadot is practically synonymous with Burgundy, particularly within the Maconnais. And you’d be forgiven given the raw number of wines they produce each year for thinking that they were just a huge corporate negociant. But the fact is that they have one of the most impressive collection of vineyard holdings in the country – well over 500 acres including 280 of Premier and Grand Cru Cote d’Or vineyards.
With their immense acreage under management in their portfolio, they have their pick of some of the best vineyards in all of Burgundy, giving them a few legs up over the majority of their competition. Robert Parker, Jr. himself said of the winery, “This is an extraordinary house where quality is the highest priority.” They remain the only Burgundian negociant included in his iconic “World’s Great Wine Estates” report.
Their innovation and foresight has set them apart as has their dedication to the process. The winery is so meticulous about each step that they even started their own oak barrel cooperage, Cadus in order to make wines that best bring out the Burgundian expression.
But with all the regions and categories that Jadot has a stronghold on, it’s perplexing that they’re so far behind in America’s hottest category: pink wines. For such an iconic brand, I was certainly surprised when I got an email with a one time “introductory pricing” on a 30-case order. An introduction to Louis Jadot? Okay, I guess. I didn’t know anyone needed one.

Recently Wolffer Estate has expanded their famous Rose line to now include a Cotes de Provence Rose. For my money, it’s hands down a better bottling – an energetic and super fresh pink wine created from the French staple Rose grapes of Grenache, Cinsault and Syrah as opposed to the Long Island version that has a whole lot of varietals mixed in. It’s bright and balanced and the perfect treat for the pool or beach as the weather warms.
The secret to Philippe’s tightly wound, complex Pinot Noir is a combo of ancient vines, natural farming techniques, and low yields. The wines are built to age, with incredible tension and length. And the secret to me securing his other-wordly 2017 old-vine Gevry-Chambertin can be chalked up to a great relationship and over a decade supporting superior Burgundian winemaking. The wine is scary good. The nose is wild, filled with spiced dark raspberries, red flowers, and baking spices. The palate is elegant and racy, with a dynamic tension that runs right through its minute-long finish. This is a high-toned, wound-up Pinot, that is starting to hit its prime and is really turning out to be a ‘must-have’ for true Burgundy lovers.
Fresh off a huge feature in The Wall Street Journal in which they were crowned as the top Prosecco Rose in a lineup of 14, I suspect what was once our little secret will explode. James Suckling also finally got around to tasting it and gave it 91 points. I’d rate it even higher. The 2021 Bisol Jeio Brut Prosecco Rosé is remarkable, and simply put, mouth-wateringly delicious. Inviting aromas of flowers and wild strawberries, with a complex mouthfeel that sings with citrus fruits and creaminess from the tiny crisp bubbles.
93 Points, Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate
This is a Nicholas Faithful favorite. Even though it’s technically a non-vintage it was last disgorged in the 2020 vintage. La Cravantine, is a sparkling rosé of 100% Cabernet Franc, bone-dry, super fresh and with bubbles so tiny and fine, it puts most “real” Champagne to shame. Appealing strawberry and mineral scents are encased in a firm structure with a dry and spicy quality in the palate. This wine is incredibly versatile – perfect with just about any fish, fried food, or do like I do and enjoy it on it’s own.
