Product notes

Produced by the prestigious Louis Jadot estate in Burgundy, Chablis white wine is drunk young and fresh.

About 3,500 hectares (including 856 hectares of Premiers and Grands Crus) are planted 100% in Chardonnay. Chablis Premiers Crus are produced in 40 different localities

Production notes

Vinification and aging take place in stainless steel vats to preserve fruit and freshness.
