Chassagne-Montrachet is located in the southern part of the Côte de Beaune. The vines of our Chassagne-Montrachet “Clos Chareau”, classified as Premier Cru, are located at the bottom of the slope where they enjoy abundant sunlight. The parcel is situated at an altitude of 220 meters and the terroirs feature, from the top down, Rauracian escarpments, a Callovian slope, reflective Argovian marls, and Bathonian limestones.

The bouquet of our 2023 Château de la Crée Chassagne-Montrachet Premier Cru Clos Chareau Chardonnay offers notes of linden honey and hazelnut while the palate displays a generous body and bright acidity. A perfectly harmonious wine, with great strength, energy, structure, and persistence, as well as richness and opulence. The aromas are precise, with pleasant bitter notes (yellow grapefruit, lemon) and hints of butter and vanilla.

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.
