Product Description

Overview

Winery: Chartron et Trebuchet

South of the Côte de Beaune, the vineyards surround the village of Chassagne-Montrachet. Along with Puligny-Montrachet it shares the undisputed prince of all dry white wines: Grand Cru Montrachet (pronounced Monrachet).
The Climat "Les Blanchots" is located South of the Montrachet plot.

Pale yellow with light silver hues. The strong oaky notes reveal the youth of the wine and its long ageing in oak barrels. With ageing, the aromas will come together with the floral and mineral notes to compose a complex and expressive nose. The palate is fresh on the attack, with citrus, lime tree, brioche and toasted notes. The finish is long and powerful, with a great aromatic precision.

Between 200 and 240 meters above sea level and facing East, this Climat is perfect for the Chardonnay grape.
Average age of vines: a part of the vines of the plot is more than 50, this other part is between 35 and 40. The vines are worked using integrated viticulture. 
Plantations: 10,000 vines/hectare. 
Yield: 45 hectoliters/hectare.

Blends elegantly with meat and fish with a noble and beautiful texture (veal or chicken in white sauce, roasted sea bass, but also foie gras) or grilled seafood and sauce (shrimp, lobster ...). Delicious as an aperitif and with cheeses with a light taste (Camembert, Brie, Blue cheese, Goat cheese, Gruyere...).

The Chartron et Trebuchet Estate

Owners of Premiers and Grands Crus in Puligny-Montrachet since 1859 with the Domaine Jean Chartron, Jean-René Chartron founded the Maison Chartron et Trébuchet in 1984 with Louis Trébuchet, manager of a wine trading company.

Vincent Sauvestre acquired the company in 2004. His objective is to continue to promote the great white wines of Burgundy, whilst respecting and perpetuating the quality work achieved by Jean Chartron and Louis Trébuchet.

The Maison Chartron et Trébuchet specialises in producing great white Burgundy wines. The know-how of the winemakers begins with a radical selection of the very best plots: the highest-quality terroirs of the Côte are chosen and the grapes are carefully monitored throughout the ripening period. Grapes are hand-picked when the balance between acidity and sweetness is at its prime: the fruit must not be too ripe so that the full potential of the terroir is maintained, including its acidity, to ensure that the wines age properly. All of the winemaking is done in casks: the alcoholic fermentation is followed by malolactic fermentation. A proportion of 20 to 40% of new barrels is used, depending on the appellations and the vintage. Wines are left to age for 12 to 18 months depending on the appellations.

The Chartron et Trebuchet Vineyards

Chartron et Trébuchet's vineyards are all planted on Limestone and Clay based soils. In average, the age of the vines is 30 years old.
