Louis Jadot Chambolle-Musigny "Les Baudes" 1er Cru

Silk and strength in perfect harmony.
In Burgundy, few names evoke such poetry as Chambolle-Musigny. Known as the most elegant village of the Côte de Nuits, its wines are often described as the feminine side of Burgundy — fragrant, delicate, and silky — yet always with an inner core of quiet strength.

The Premier Cru vineyard Les Baudes lies just below the legendary Bonnes-Mares Grand Cru, and that proximity shows in the wine. The soils of clay and limestone give the grapes a natural tension: lush fruit carried by fine minerality, perfume balanced by structure.

Louis Jadot’s Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru “Les Baudes” Domaine is a masterclass in finesse. The wine shimmers a bright ruby in the glass. On the nose, aromas of violets, wild raspberries, and red cherries mingle with subtle notes of spice, rose petal, and forest earth. The palate is graceful yet layered, unfolding in silken waves of fruit and minerality, supported by fine tannins that promise elegance in youth and sophistication with age. The finish is long, perfumed, and quietly powerful — unmistakably Chambolle.

This is a wine for moments of reflection and refinement. For wine lovers in Ireland, it offers the chance to experience a Premier Cru with Grand Cru neighbours, capturing Burgundy’s artistry in a single glass.

Why we love it:
Because “Les Baudes” captures Chambolle’s essence: perfume, finesse, and hidden power. Louis Jadot crafts a wine that is pure poetry in liquid form, rewarding both immediate enjoyment and long cellaring.
