Domaine Vincent et Francois Jouard, a fifth-generation family-owned estate in Chassagne Montrachet, Burgundy, has been crafting wines since 1820. Helmed by Vincent and Francois Jouard, each brother brings distinct skills to the table. Vincent, with his meticulous viticulture, manages the 11 hectares of land, including ten premier cru vineyards. At the same time, Francois handles the winemaking, giving a light touch in the cellar and using no more than one-third new barrels for elevage. Their devotion to old vines, some surpassing 50 years, sets them apart. These mature vines tap deep into the earth, drawing an abundance of minerals and nutrients that contribute to the complexity of the wines. The Jouard brothers' sustainable farming methods, such as extensive plowing, eschew chemical weeding, preserving the integrity and health of the vineyards. The unique position of the vineyards, with Premier Crus on the hill and red and Village wines on the lower slopes, combined with the region's rich and complex soils, allow the Jouard's to create wines that exude elegance and vitality. Their wines, 95% of which are white and a mere 5% red Chassagne-Montrachet, are expressive of the terroir, with a vibrant nose, crisp acidity, and luscious finish. The wines are unique exemplars of Burgundian elegance and terroir-driven complexity. Their Chassagne-Montrachet Vieilles Vignes showcases vibrant citrus and floral notes on the nose, met with a crisp, balanced acidity on the palate and a structured finish offering excellent aging potential.
