Louis Jadot Bourgogne Chardonnay Couvent des Jacobins

Textured. Elegant. The essence of Burgundy in every sip.
The Couvent des Jacobins is more than just an entry into the world of white Burgundy—it's a statement of style and craftsmanship from one of the region’s most respected producers, Maison Louis Jadot. This wine pays homage to the ancient Dominican monastery in Beaune, once the home of Louis Jadot’s cellars, and reflects a philosophy rooted in tradition, terroir, and balance.

Sourced from carefully selected vineyards across Burgundy—including the limestone-rich soils of the Côte d’Or and the sun-kissed slopes of the Mâconnais—this Chardonnay marries freshness with structure, and precision with generosity. The winemaking is thoughtful: fermentation and ageing occur partly in stainless steel to retain fruit purity and partly in oak barrels to build texture and complexity. The result is a wine that captures both the energy of cool-climate Chardonnay and the subtle roundness that Burgundy is so beloved for.

This is not an overdone, heavily oaked Chardonnay, nor a lean, citrus-only expression. It sits beautifully in the middle, offering vibrant orchard fruit, a touch of creamy oak, and a mineral-driven finish that speaks clearly of its Burgundian origin. Whether you're new to the category or a seasoned white Burgundy drinker, this cuvée offers exceptional value, pedigree, and drinkability.

Why we love it:
Couvent des Jacobins is a white Burgundy you can open on a weeknight but still pour proudly at a dinner party. It’s precise, polished, and quietly expressive—the kind of wine that’s easy to love and hard to forget. Whether you’re pairing it with food or sipping it solo, it offers everything you want from Chardonnay: brightness, depth, and unmistakable charm.
