Jean Chartron Chevalier Montrachet Clos des Chevaliers 2018 |
The AOC Chevalier-Montrachet is located on the best slope of Puligny, in the extension of that of Montrachet. It produces 320 hl / year of Grands Crus white wines whose reputation is well established, on a vineyard of just over 7 hectares. The latter is located at an altitude of between 265 and 300 meters.
The soils are very well drained and benefit from a south-south-east exposure. The Chardonnay variety thrives wonderfully in this climate. It offers remarkable wines in both their finesse and their elegance, just as distinguished as the wines of Montrachet even if their profile is a little less massive. The aromas of fern dominate their bouquet, especially in their youth. These are racy and slender whites, with fine mineral notes, which deserve a long guard to reveal with age exceptional aromas of complexity and elegance.
