Founded in 1859 by Louis Henry Denis Jadot, Maison Louis Jadot is easily one of the most recognizable French wine brands in the United States. With its distinctive Bacchus emblem on every bottle, Louis Jadot produces hundreds of wines across red, white, and rosé in Burgundy (and Beaujolais). And while some of the world’s most expensive bottles of wine come from Burgundy, Louis Jadot is popular for both its approachability and affordability.
Though the brand produces some prestigious bottles that go for thousands of dollars, its entry-level Bourgogne and Village-level expressions are often many wine drinkers’ first foray into French wine. Using grapes from their own vineyards as well as those sourced from across the region, Louis Jadot produces in various appellations to showcase Burgundy’s unique and diverse terroir.
