"87 Points - Jasper Morris, MW, Inside Burgundy.com
Prettily perfumed, with some baked apple behind. Fresher apple on the palate, good acidity, a leaner style though still with some flesh, good length. Note, this wine can also be labelled Bourgogne Côte d’Or or Cuvée Eugenie Dupard, depending on the market. Drink from 2026-2028. Tasted Oct 2025 by Jasper Morris MW."
Jean Chartron is the 5th generation to manage his family domaine, founded in 1859 and in the past decade has seen a resurgence in the quality of wine being produced here. With 14 hectares, including Grand Cru’s and 1er Cru Monopole vineyards, they are an important vineyard proprietor in Puligny and have long been one of the high profile Domaines of the village. Jean-Michel and his sister Anne-Laure are producing outstanding wines.

Jean-Michel Chartron had one of the longer 2024 harvests, starting on 13th September for crémant, and finishing as the rains were about to return on the 26th. Chaptalisation was necessary as he preferred to finish with classical degrees of 13% for village wines and either side of 13.5% for the 1ers and Grands Crus. When I tasted, the first three whites were in bottle, the rest racked to tank but neither fined nor filtered yet, trials coming up. The Grands Crus were still in barrel. All this is as usual in terms of elevage.

These wines are finally beginning to attract the respect they deserve. Chartron deftly bridges entry-level, affordable, more commercial cuvées with some of the most prized holdings in the Côte de Beaune, so there is something for everyone at this address.
