Puligny Montrachet 1er Cru Clos Du Cailleret° Chartron Jean, 2022

Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Clos du Cailleret by Jean Chartron is a fine Burgundy white wine from one of the most celebrated villages in the Côte de Beaune. Known for its precision, mineral drive, and graceful structure, it reflects the elegance and pedigree that have made Puligny-Montrachet a benchmark for Chardonnay around the world.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, this wine typically shows a bright pale gold colour with subtle green reflections in its youth. The nose is refined and layered, often unfolding with notes of white flowers, citrus zest, ripe orchard fruit, hazelnut, and a distinct limestone-driven minerality. On the palate, it is poised and focused, combining vibrant acidity with a silky texture and impressive length. Expect flavours of lemon, pear, white peach, and buttery brioche, supported by a savory, stony finish. The 2022 vintage should offer both early generosity and the structure to evolve gracefully over time, with good aging potential over several years.

Production
Clos du Cailleret is a premier cru site in Puligny-Montrachet, where limestone-rich soils and an ideal mid-slope exposure help produce wines of tension, purity, and finesse. The vineyard’s terroir is particularly suited to Chardonnay, benefiting from excellent drainage and a cool-climate influence that preserves freshness and aromatic detail. Although specific vinification details are not provided, wines from this appellation are typically harvested by hand and vinified with careful attention to balance and expression of terroir, often including fermentation and maturation in oak barrels to add texture without overpowering the wine’s natural minerality.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with refined dishes such as roast chicken, butter-poached lobster, scallops, creamy risotto, and delicate mushroom preparations. It is best served slightly chilled, around 10-12°C, and may benefit from 20-30 minutes in a decanter when young to allow its aromatics and texture to open up.
