Description
Characteristics and tasting notes of the Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru "Boudriotte" 2022 by Domaine Ramonet
Tasting
Appearance
This wine reveals a beautiful pale gold to light gold hue, sometimes shaded with subtle green highlights in its youth.
Nose
Highly expressive, the bouquet unveils generous aromas of yellow and white-fleshed fruits such as peach and pear, intertwined with notes of white flowers like acacia. The whole is underlined by delicate hints of honey, fresh butter and a chalky minerality.
Palate
Ample and structured, the palate offers a satin-like texture and measured richness. The perfectly integrated acidity brings a beautiful mineral tension, leading to a persistent and harmonious finish, marked by fruit and subtle woody nuances.
Food and wine pairings
This great white wine pairs wonderfully with noble fish in creamy sauces, pan-seared shellfish such as lobster or scallops, as well as high-quality poultry in cream sauce. It will also enhance a mushroom risotto or cooked pressed cheeses such as Comté or Beaufort.
Serving and cellaring
Endowed with an excellent ageing potential, this wine can be kept in the cellar to reveal all its complexity and will be ideal to enjoy until around 2037.

The estate
Founded in the 1920s by Pierre Ramonet, Domaine Ramonet (today known as Domaine Jean-Claude Ramonet) is an essential signature. Located in Chassagne-Montrachet, the estate covers approximately 17 hectares of vines. Renowned worldwide for the excellence and purity of its chardonnays, the house perpetuates a demanding family expertise. Today, management is entrusted to Michaël and Pierre-François Ramonet, while drawing upon the technical legacy and invaluable experience of Jean-Claude and Noël Ramonet.
The vineyard
The Climat of La Boudriotte lies to the east and south of the village. This exceptional terroir rests on deep clay-limestone soils, combining clays that bring flesh to the wine with limestone stones that promote drainage and mineral tension. This Burgundian estate practises precision sustainable viticulture, with high planting densities, a strong proportion of massal selection and strictly controlled yields to guarantee the concentration of the grapes.
The vintage
The 2022 vintage is recognised as a sunny one. Marked by warm and dry climatic conditions, this year allowed for perfect ripening of the berries. Thanks to rigorous management of the vegetative cycle, the heat was perfectly controlled, yielding generous grapes while preserving a beautiful natural freshness.
Vinification and ageing
The manual harvest is subject to rigorous sorting. In the cellar, the grapes are whole-cluster pressed extremely gently. Fermentation takes place spontaneously thanks to indigenous yeasts over an extended period. Ageing then unfolds in French oak barrels on fine lees, accompanied by regular bâtonnage, in order to enrich the texture while preserving the purity and brilliance of the wine.
