Chartron et Trebuchet Puligny Montrachet
Maison Chartron et Trebuchet
France - Burgundy - Puligny Montrachet

Located in the South of the Côte de Beaune, the vineyards surround the village of Puligny-Montrachet.

Golden yellow color with green reflections. Mineral (flint) and floral (hawthorn) aromas intertwined with buttery notes of warm croissant blend elegantly with hints of honey and hazelnuts. On the palate, there is a great concentration of flavors. A powerful and distinguished finish.

Pairings

This Puligny Montrachet is a great match with meat and fish (veal or chicken in white sauce, roasted sea bass, but also foie gras) or grilled shell fish with sauce (shrimp, lobster...).
Delicious as an aperitif or with mild tasting cheese (camembert, brie, blue, goat, gruyere...).

2013 Chartron et Trebuchet Puligny-Montrachet - 92 PTS - WE

wine enthusiast 92 pts"This wine is closed and firm in character, but has considerable potential. It has the makings of a mineral and spice-flavored wine that is textured while showing ripe yellow fruits and a citrus backdrop. It needs to wait; drink from 2017."
