About the winery · Maison Louis Jadot ›
Maison Louis Jadot was founded in Beaune in 1859 and is one of Burgundy's best-known houses. The company works across Burgundy, Beaujolais and the Maconnais, with a focus on terroir expression and consistent quality. In Beaujolais, Jadot is linked both to accessible Gamay bottlings and to its ownership of Chateau des Jacques in Moulin-a-Vent. Kobrand has been the U.S. importer of Jadot wines since 1945 and purchased the firm in 1985.
