Pinot Noir

Pair with garlic and herb roasted pork tenderloin or oven-baked salmon fillets.

Fortune shined in 2016—our third exceptional vintage in a row. The growing season was especially warm and dry, leading to near-perfect maturity. With this ripeness, the flavors were well-developed and complex. We began harvesting Pinot noir at the very beginning of September, and the maceration revealed a nice concentration and tannic structure.

Aged 13 months in French oak barrels, 20% new.

It was a crisp spring day in April 2013 when Thibault Gagey and Jacques Lardière set out to survey a well-established vineyard named Résonance. Jacques had just retired after leading winemaking at Maison Louis Jadot for 42 years and Thibault whose family has operated Maison Louis Jadot since 1962 was ready to enter the business with a bold new project. They immediately felt a deep connection with the place and after tasting through dozens of wines made with the vineyard’s fruit Jacques sat back and said “Perfect.” Pierre-Henry Gagey the President of Maison Louis Jadot and Thibault’s father agreed. They decided to keep the vineyard’s title and they also named their new winery—Maison Louis Jadot’s first outside of Burgundy—in its honor. With the same meaning in English and French Résonance evokes many great things to come. They added the tiny but all-important accent mark to represent this small but special connection between Oregon and France.
