History

Located in the heart of the Golden Triangle of Burgundy (Puligny-Montrachet, Chassagne-Montrachet and Meursault), Chartron et Trébuchet is today recognized for the very high quality of its white wines, which include five Grand Crus, and is held in high regard by connoisseurs as the creator of the greatest Puligny-Montrachet, the symbol of the estate.

Origin

In the heart of the Côte de Beaune, between 200 and 300 meters above sea level and with an east/southeast exposure, the vineyards surround the picturesque village of Meursault.

Winemaking

Traditional winemaking: the grapes are pressed immediately upon arrival at the cellar in pneumatic presses. Decanting, cold storage for 48 hours. Fermentation in barrels at low temperature, 16/20° to preserve the aromas.

The aging continues in barrels on soils for 8-16 months with regular stirring to obtain depth and complexity. 20 to 30% new barrels.

Soil

The vineyards find their excellence on calcareous marl.

Color

Light yellow color with bright green shades.

Nose

The flavors of honeysuckle, fern, candied lemon, brioche and toasted bread form the bouquet.

Palate

The palate is tasty with some notes of almond paste and hazelnuts.

The finish is both salty and crunchy.

Recommendations

It goes elegantly with meat and fish with a noble and beautiful texture (veal or chicken in white sauce, roast sea bass, but also foie gras) or grilled seafood and sauce (shrimp, lobster ...).

Delicious as an aperitif and with light-tasting cheeses (Camembert, Brie, blue cheese, goat cheese, Gruyere...).
