Château des Jacques has been part of the great Burgundy house Louis Jadot since 1996. The 35 hectares of Château des Jacques vines are located in the heart of the Beaujolais region, in the Moulin-à-Vent appellation. Five remarkable terroirs form part of this ensemble: Grand Clos de Rochegrès, Clos du Grand Carquelin, Clos de Champ de Cour, Clos de la Roche, Clos des Thorins. All Louis Jadot's expertise and exacting standards are applied to the most prestigious Beaujolais cru.
