The story
Founded in 1984 by Jean‑René Chartron and Louis Trébuchet in Puligny‑Montrachet. In 2016 the house was acquired and revitalised under Maison François Martenot (Helfrich / Les Grands Chais de France) with investments to modernise vinification and ageing.
Production philosophy
Strict selection of parcels and growers, parcel-based vinifications, measured cellar intervention, controlled oak ageing and techniques aimed at expressing Burgundy terroir; low dosage on the crémants.
Terroir and vineyards
Located in the Côte de Beaune; historically in the 'golden triangle' Meursault–Puligny‑Montrachet–Chassagne‑Montrachet. The label works appellations from the Côte de Beaune up to Chablis and neighbouring areas of Greater Burgundy.
