""Deep colour, lovely flavour on the nose, pretty bouquet. Good intensity and acidity showing. Lovely freshness and energy and a good, creamy texture.." Aidan Bell Nov. 2019"
Jean Chartron is the 5th generation to manage his family domaine, founded in 1859, and the past decade has seen a resurgence in the quality of wine being produced here. With 14 hectares, including Grand Cru’s and 1er Cru Monopole vineyards, they are an important vineyard proprietor in Puligny and Jean-Michel and his sister Anne-Laure are consistently producing outstanding wines.
The vines for this excellent value Chardonnay are 50 years old, predominantly from the Bois Guillemain vineyard in the village of Nantoux, just above Volnay. The wine is 100% barrel fermented, matured on fine lees for 8 months and then allowed to knit in tank for a further 3 months prior to bottling.
