Tasting Profile
- Nose: Lemon curd, baked apple and white peach, then hazelnut, beeswax and a smoky, flinty edge.
- Palate: Dense and layered, with ripe orchard fruit, toasted nuts and a firm, chalky acidity keeping the weight in check.
- Finish: Long and savoury, with honey, spice and a salty mineral echo.

Try Dover sole meunière, lobster with brown butter, or Bresse chicken with morels.

About the Domaine
Pierre Ramonet (1906 to 1994) built the domaine in Chassagne-Montrachet from very modest beginnings. His grandsons Noël and Jean-Claude started work there in 1983, and the wines have carried Jean-Claude's name alone since the 2014 vintage.
