Chartron et Trebuchet Chablis 2020

Cellar for up to 5 years. Serve chilled.

Maison Chartron et Trebuchet have a stellar reputation in France for making top quality white Burgundy at very affordable price points. They’re able to achieve this since they act as a negociant, or wine merchant, rigorously selecting only the very finest grapes from prized sites in Côte d'Or and the Maconnais. To ensure they get great fruit, they carefully monitor the vines during the growing season and harvest all of the fruit by hand.

This Chablis is a great example of the Chartron et Trebuchet philosophy, offering an impressive profile that punches high above the pricetag. The winemaking is precise and targeted, allowing the natural varietal character of the Chardonnay and the flinty Chablis terroir to shine through with minimal oak treatment. Wines are also racked in the traditional manner, avoiding any unnecessary filtering which may alter the taste of the wine.

The result is a crisp, refreshing Chablis that’s bursting with zingy citrus, a delicate stony minerality, and hints of orchard fruits on the nose. The first sip reveals a bright acidity to complement the gorgeous fruit flavours, ending in a pure, clean finish. Great served as an aperitif before dinner or as a match for fresh seafood, spicy Asian dishes, or even sushi.
