Grape

Gamay

Origin
One of Beaujolais's most prestigious houses, acquired by Louis Jadot in 1996. Although 100% Gamay, the wine is made using traditional Pinot Noir vinification techniques, with a 20-30 day fermentation by indigenous yeasts, followed by partial ageing in French oak.
Taste
Intense aromas of ripe red fruit intermingled with irises, roses and hints of spice. Surprising depth and muscularity on the palate, with dry, fleshy tannins and a firm acidic crispness to the finish. Ready to drink immediately, but can be kept for 6-8 years from vintage.
Enjoy
Classic match for spring lamb.

Press Reviews

  • Summer pudding in a glass (2010 Vintage)

    "Buying beaujolais from a burgundy producer makes sense for those seeking a richer, bolder, food-friendly style. Chateau St Jacques was bought by Louis Jadot in 1996 and includes five vineyards within the Moulin-a-Vent appellation. The grape's raspberry, plum and cherry fruit is summer pudding in a glass. (Jane MacQuitty, The Times, 28th July 2012)"
