The 2022 Louis Jadot Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru En Cailleret is a refined Premier Cru Chardonnay from one of the most highly regarded vineyards of Chassagne-Montrachet in Burgundy's Côte de Beaune. Cailleret sits toward the northern end of the commune, on the upper slopes where the soils become particularly rocky and limestone-rich - the name itself derives from cailloux, meaning stones. This elevated, well-drained terroir is renowned for producing a more mineral, precise and elegant expression of Chassagne-Montrachet, combining the village's natural richness with the tension and finesse associated with its finest Premier Cru sites. In the generous 2022 Burgundy vintage, Cailleret's stony soils and natural mineral character provide an excellent counterbalance to the ripeness of the year.
