In 1936 the four villages of Buxy, Montagny-les-Buxy, Jully-les-Buxy and Saint-Vallerin were joined together to form the AOC of Montagny. The south facing vineyards of these villages are known for their pebbled limestone soil. Kimmeridgian is a type of limestone normally found in Chablis to the North, not in the south end of Cote Chalonnaise where Montagny sits. The villages that make up the Montagny region share common soil characteristics and because of this, the wines have something in common: an ever so slight flint note. Not as pronounced as most outstanding Chablis, but nonetheless, the mineral and flint notes are still prevalent. The bright acidity found in Chardonnay from this region mixed and the underlying mineral note creates a wine that steps outside the boundary of the classic Burgundy Chardonnay. Notes of honeysuckle and spring flowers fill the nose. On the palate, the juice is fresh and lively with flavors of white peach and ripe pear. Rich, refined and delicate with mineral hints pulling together on the finish. Food pairing Its freshness and finesse allow it to be enjoyed asan aperitif. It also pairs well with white meat and sauce. At the sea side, it will be perfect with a plate of shellfish (lobster, scallops) steamed or poached or noble fish just fried, grilled or steamed. Cheeses: Goat cheese, Beaufort Comte, Emmental. . .
Producer It all began in 1984… when Louis Trebuchet met Jean-Rene Chartron, a winegrower based in the village of Puligny-Montrachet. Louis was a young Burgundian who was eager to set up his own company in order to use the experience gained as manager of a reputed wine firm in Beaune. Providence enabled the two to meet and discover their mutual passion for Burgundy and its wines. The company is now owned and run by Vincent Sauvestre, 4th generation winegrower in Meursault with vines in the Cote de Nuits and Cote de Beaune including three Grand Crus and twelve Premier Cru wines. Chartron & Trebuchet specialises in the vinification and the aging of great Burgundy wines.
