WINE DESCRIPTION

The Chassagne Montrachet 1er Cru "Clos du Château de la Maltroye" is a exquisite white wine crafted from 100% Chardonnay in Burgundy by the esteemed Château de la Maltroye. Originating from a parcel with southeast exposure and clay-limestone soil in front of the Château, it embodies richness and minerality. Aged for 12 months in 30% new barrels, this wine is a true representation of the estate's premier white offerings—abundant, powerful, mineral-rich, and fruity.
