Tasting notes

Château de la Maltroye, a consistently reliable producer of both red and white wines, delivered an impressive performance. This white, sourced from their monopole, showcases the broader and weightier minerality characteristic of Chassagne, in contrast to Puligny. Well-balanced acidity enhances its appeal, offering striking transparency to a dynamic, shimmering interplay of diverse mineral and citrus notes. A sense of lift and silken textural refinement sets it apart from the other wines in this year’s collection. Musk and narcissus aromas waft throughout, while ripe peach contributes to its persistent succulence.

About this wine

Château de la Maltroye's Chassagne-Montrachet Premier Cru is a distinguished white Burgundy crafted from Chardonnay grown in one of France's most esteemed vineyard microclimates. The Chassagne-Montrachet appellation, situated in the heart of the Côte de Beaune, produces wines of remarkable elegance and complexity, where limestone-rich soils and optimal sun exposure create ideal conditions for exceptional fruit expression.

This Premier Cru showcases the signature mineral precision and well-balanced character typical of Maltroye's winemaking philosophy. The Chardonnay expresses citrus and stone fruit notes supported by a persistent, long finish that reflects the terroir's distinctive mineral composition. At 13.5% ABV, the wine achieves perfect harmony between richness and refinement.

Versatile at the table, this Chassagne-Montrachet pairs beautifully with shellfish, crab, and lobster, while also complementing roast chicken, mushrooms, and cream-based dishes. It is equally suited to sushi and sashimi, citrus-based preparations, and fine cheeses such as Camembert and Parmesan, making it an indispensable selection for fine dining, coastal villas, and private cellars.
