Louis Jadot Montrachet Grand Cru is made from 100 percent Chardonnay.
Le Montrachet is situated to the south of the Côte de Beaune, on both villages of Puligny Montrachet and Chassagne Montrachet (like the Batard Montrachet Grand Cru).
The terroir is extremely chalky with a lot of stones, perfectly drained and easy to overheat with south-south-eastern exposition.
The Montrachet is produced with Chardonnay
Grapes are harvested by hand and put in small cases in order not to damage the fruits. Grapes are pressed softly, they ferment in oak barrels produced by our cooperage. 1/3 are new barrels. Aging usually lasts 15 months on fine lies before bottling.
Review:
Aromas of buttered toast, honeyed peaches, white flowers and mint introduce the 2019 Montrachet Grand Cru (Maison Louis Jadot), a full-bodied, layered and enveloping wine that's satiny and sumptuous, with lively acids and fine depth at the core. While I'd give the nod to the stunning Demoiselles as Jadot's best white wine this year, this Montrachet—purchased from the Chassagne-Montrachet side, from the house's usual source—is undeniably promising.

Trus Albillo Mayor Reserva Ribera del Duero is made from 100% Albillo Mayor.
Light straw yellow color despite its age. Aromas of white flowers and grapefruit typical of the variety, along with some very light notes of toasted wood and of long bottle ageing. Very well-balanced on the palate, with the characteristic fullness of the variety and a very refreshing natural acidity which bodes well for the wine's ageing. A wine for ageing which already displays all its complexity and elegance. We recommend consumption at a temperature of between 8 and 12ºC.
