Overview
The Louis Jadot Beaujolais-Villages Combe Aux Jacques offers a refined yet dynamic expression of the Beaujolais region, crafted from Gamay grapes sourced primarily from the Rhône and Saône-et-Loire regions, specifically the prestigious Lantigné, Lancié, and Régnié areas. This wine embodies the perfect balance of the Beaujolais Villages' terroir, which combines granite, clay, and calcareous soils to produce wines of exceptional character. Vinified and aged in stainless steel vats to preserve its vibrant fruitiness and freshness, this wine is a testament to Louis Jadot's legacy, having earned thirteen prestigious awards for Winery of the Year in the last 25 years.
Tasting Notes
With a brilliant light red hue, this wine opens with an aromatic bouquet of blackcurrant, violet, mulberry, rose, and blackberry, enhanced by hints of juniper, Mediterranean herbs, and forest floor. The palate is lively and exceptionally fresh, offering a silken texture that complements the present fruit acidity. Spiced plum and a subtle note of bubblegum are followed by leathery tannins, with a touch of tobacco adding complexity. The wine finishes with a dry, savoury note, making it a wonderfully balanced and versatile choice for a range of dishes. Perfect with charcuterie, roasted meats, or a selection of cheeses.
