Louis Jadot Domaine du Bouchet Macon Lugny 2023
Louis Jadot Mâcon-Lugny Le Bouchet is a very approachable, single-vineyard Chardonnay from the Mâconnais, the southern tip of Burgundy where Chardonnay thrives on calcareous hillside soils and delivers the freshness, floral lift, and fruit purity that make the appellation such a reliable source of excellent-value white Burgundy. Vinified in stainless steel to preserve aromatic freshness, this is a clean, elegant, and thoroughly satisfying Chardonnay from one of Burgundy's most trusted names. Why You'll Love It Louis Jadot is one of Burgundy's most celebrated and respected négociants, with a history stretching back to 1859. Le Bouchet is a single vineyard site in Mâcon-Lugny, a village appellation with a strong reputation for producing some of the Mâconnais's most characterful whites. If you love white Burgundy but want the quality without the Meursault price tag, this is exactly the bottle to reach for. Vineyard & Production Sourced from a single hillside vineyard planted on calcareous soils in Mâcon-Lugny. Vinified in stainless steel tanks to extract maximum floral and fruity aromas and preserve freshness. Dry, with residual sugar under 2g/l. Tasting Notes Pale gold in colour. Floral and fruity on the nose, with fresh citrus and stone fruit aromas. The palate is clean, vibrant, and well-balanced, approachable and expressive, with a fresh, lingering finish typical of the Mâconnais style. Perfect Pairings Perfect with fish, white meats, and salads. Also excellent as an aperitif on its own, or alongside soft cheeses, grilled prawns, and light pasta dishes. Grape Variety Chardonnay 100%
