Jean Charton Chevalier Montrachet,Clos des Chevaliers gc. 2020 0,75l

From the Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru in Puligny-Montrachet, this white Burgundy is made entirely from Chardonnay. Clos des Chevaliers has been a monopole of the Chartron family since 1917. Clay and limestone soils give the wine a distinctive mineral backbone. Fermentation takes place entirely in oak, followed by ageing on fine lees and a final period in tank. The bouquet combines delicate blossom, citrus tones and subtle nutty accents. On the palate it is concentrated yet poised, with freshness, precision and a persistent saline finish. Its depth and restraint make it especially compelling with turbot and refined, creamy sauces.

The grape variety: Chardonnay

Chardonnay is a globally renowned white grape from Burgundy, capable of crisp, mineral, creamy or oak-aged styles. Its flavours range from citrus and apple to peach, butter, nuts and toast.
