Dive into the multi-dimensional flavors of the 2021 Premier Cru Clos Chareau. The vineyard site for this Chardonnay is very rich in clay soil accompanied by large limestone rocks. It creates a rich, round, and neutral wine that is tolerant of high amounts of oak. The blending process with 33% new oak makes this wine seamless and not overly acidic. It’s round, rich, and pairs delightfully with baked brie and peppers.
Notes of citrus fruit, lemongrass, and minerality create layers optimal for aging. The 2021 Clos Chareau will taste delightful on your table now, while years in the cellar will allow it to develop even more complexity, texture, and depth.

Chassagne-Montrachet
In the southern Côte de Beaune, Chassagne-Montrachet stands alongside Puligny as a premier producer of dry white wines, notably the revered Montrachet. This esteemed hillside cultivates both Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, showcasing the complexity of the region's soils. Additionally, the area is renowned for its marble quarries, the source of pink and beige flagstones used in notable structures like the Trocadero and the Louvre Pyramid. Established in 1937, our parcel encompasses very old vines giving birth to wines with remarkable intensity and body and altitudes of 220 to 325 meters.
