Fresh & Balanced Santenay

On the palate, notes of apricot are joined by fresh lemon and white pepper. The oak is well-integrated, contributing subtle vanilla aromas. This is a fresh wine, showing an excellent balance between roundness and acidity.

100% Chardonnay
Manual harvest
Aged in oak barrels for 12 months, of which 15% is new oak.

Cellaring: Drink now through 2030

Food Pairing: A light, sharp vivacity will complement creamy dishes, such as fish couscous, as well as mushroom-based pastas and risottos. Poultry in a cream sauce is also an excellent match. The Santenay appellation pairs particularly well with Comté, Beaufort, and goat cheeses | 🌡️ Serve at around 12-14ºC.

STORY BEHIND THE WINE

Located in Dezize-les-Maranges, just a short distance southwest of Santenay, Domaine Maurice Charleux has a history dating back to 1894. Founded by Ferdinand Charleux with a modest half-hectare, the estate saw significant expansion under his son Joseph and later his grandson Maurice, who began bottling under the family name in 1970.

Now managed by Maurice’s son Vincent, the property has grown to nearly 10 hectares, primarily dedicated to Pinot Noir with a smaller portion of Chardonnay. While the family continues to supply a small amount of fruit to local négociants, their estate production has reached approximately 40,000 bottles annually and continues to climb.
