Description
What type of wine it is
The Chassagne Montrachet Blanc by Christian Bergeret et Fille is a still white wine that precisely embodies the elegance of Burgundy. Made exclusively from Chardonnay, this wine best expresses the renowned Chassagne-Montrachet appellation through a structured and complex sensory profile. On the palate, it is smooth and remarkably persistent, preceded by fresh citrus notes that bring liveliness and finesse to the sip. Its natural harmony makes it an excellent companion for lean fish dishes, delicate shellfish and selections of soft cheeses.
Where it comes from
This white wine comes to life in the famous commune of Chassagne-Montrachet, located in the viticultural heart of Burgundy. The family estate dedicatedly manages fourteen hectares of vineyards distributed across various suitable areas, taking extreme care of the oldest parcels. The grapes come from vines with an average age of 25-30 years, capable of transferring a distinct and recognisable territorial identity to the fruit. Careful agronomic management allows for grapes of extraordinary quality, faithfully reflecting the characteristics of the terroir of origin.
How it is produced
The production of this wine follows classic winemaking methods, designed to enhance the natural qualities that Chardonnay expresses in this area. At the end of fermentation, the liquid is transferred for ageing in oak barrels, where it rests for a period of between twelve and eighteen months. This patient passage through wood gives the wine greater volume and an enveloping smoothness, while keeping the freshness of the primary aromas intact. Thanks to its solid structural framework, the wine possesses remarkable evolutionary potential, suitable for bottle ageing for five to ten years.
