CHASSAGNE MONTRACHET DOUDET NAUDIN

To the south of the Côte de Beaune, Chassagne-Montrachet shares with Puligny the undisputed prince of all dry white wines: the divine Montrachet (pronounced Mon-rachet). This large and beautiful hillside brings the two Burgundian grape varieties to excellence. Pinot Noir and Chardonnay flourish here side by side due to the complexity of the terroirs. Large quarries of marble stone form a rocky front: in Paris, the Trocadéro or more recently the Louvre Pyramid use this stone in pink or beige paving. The Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée dates from 1937. It also concerns some vines in the neighboring village of Remigny, in continuity with the terroir.
