A girl with big dreams who left her hometown in Ohio to chase the sunshine and landed in Austin, Texas nearly 10 years ago. What started as being bored and hungry with a glass of wine, turned into a full-blown business venture.

Hi, I'm ASHLEY

High above the vibrant streets of downtown Austin, we hosted a wine-tasting brunch featuring five wines from Maison Louis Jadot. Held on the 24th floor with sweeping city views, this festive holiday event offered a perfect blend of approachable luxury, education, and community.

The Legacy of Maison Louis Jadot

Founded in 1859, Maison Louis Jadot is a historic Burgundy wine house. Known for its exceptional craftsmanship and dedication to terroir, Jadot owns 528 acres of vineyards. These include some of Burgundy’s most prestigious Premier and Grand Cru sites. As both a vineyard owner and négociant, they balance estate production with a diverse range of wines.

One hallmark of Jadot’s approach is their use of “réplis.” This technique incorporates higher appellation wines into lower-tier offerings, elevating quality. Their wines blend tradition with innovation, offering selections for every palate.

An Elegant Affair in Downtown Austin

The event captured the season’s spirit with an elevated yet fun atmosphere. Guests enjoyed a stunning grazing table of bite-sized bagels and lox, chicken’ n’ waffles, charcuterie, and more. The curated wine selection perfectly complemented the food. Led by our certified wine professional, Kelly Saxon, the tasting guided attendees through Burgundy’s heritage and Jadot’s craftsmanship.

Wines That Tell a Story

Each pour transported guests to the heart of Burgundy, showcasing the region’s diversity and winemaking excellence. The featured wines included:

Mâcon-Villages AOC Chardonnay 2023

A fresh, floral wine with citrusy notes and a hint of minerality, unoaked to highlight its natural vibrancy.

Chardonnay Bourgogne 2023

Balanced and bright, with citrus, stone fruit, and a touch of stony minerality.

Pouilly-Fuissé AOC 2023

Richer and more complex, with notes of honey and nuts from partial oak aging.

Beaujolais-Villages AOC 2023

A juicy, fruit-forward Gamay with flavors of fresh strawberries and cherries.

Pinot Noir Bourgogne 2022

Elegant and earthy, with floral aromas and red fruit wrapped in balanced acidity.

A Community of Connection

The intimate gathering fostered connections among attendees. Guests left with a deeper appreciation for Burgundy wines and created holiday memories. SNOOTI’s mission of making fine wines approachable came to life in this warm, sophisticated setting.
