"93-95 Points - Neal Martin, January 2026
The 2024 Puligny-Montrachet Clos du Cailleret 1er Cru has a little more precision and detail compared to the Clos du Cailleret this year. Touches of Conference pear and orange pith and a hint of candle wax on the nose. The palate is well balanced with crisp acidity, quite dainty and elegant yet there is real cohesion and precision towards the finish. This is very classy. Drinking Window: 2027 – 2042

Mid lemon and lime. Plenty of concentration here and greater expression than the Pucelles. This is really quite fine, with stony particles alongside the white fruit flesh. The nose needs to emerge further but this is capable of developing in to a fine Cailleret. 13 barrels made. Drink from 2030-2036. Tasted Oct 2025.
95 Points - Charles Curtis MW, Decanter.com
An exceptional wine – I wrote on the day of tasting that it was 'the archetype of Puligny,' for its pronounced lime peel and flinty minerality and the impressive extract and depth on the palate balanced by a lively acidity. The grapes are from the hectare that the Chartron family retains here, north of Montrachet, at the same elevation on the slope. The Clos was a former monopole of the Chartron family, and they are still the reference standard for the site. Drinking Window: 2030 - 2050"
Domaine Jean Chartron dates from 1859 and is now run by the 5th generation of the family, Jean-Michel looks after the winery whilst his sister Anne-Laure manages the vineyards. With 13 hectares, including Grand Cru’s and 1er Cru Monopole vineyards, they are an important vineyard proprietor in Puligny and have long been one of the high profile Domaines of the village. Jean-Michel and Anne-Laure are producing outstanding wines.
