Martelet de Cherisey

Martelet de Cherisey works the limestone slopes of Côte de Beaune, where Pinot Noir and Chardonnay reach their classical expression. The winery's portfolio centers on premier cru bottlings from two adjacent villages: Blagny and Puligny-Montrachet. The Blagny 1er Cru 'La Genelotte'—a Pinot Noir—and the Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru offerings in Chardonnay ('La Garenne' and 'Hameau de Blagny') form the core of production. These wines have drawn assessment from Decanter and Wine Spectator. The terroir here demands precision: the chalky soils and cool continental climate favor wines of mineral tension and aging potential, hallmarks of the finest Côte de Beaune expressions.
