Lucien le Moine Chevalier Montrachet Grand Cru 2017

Lucien le Moine Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru 2017 is a rare and highly sought-after Burgundy Chardonnay from one of the region’s most talked-about micro-négociants. Known for its uncompromising quality and hands-on approach, Lucien le Moine crafts wines that express their grand cru origins with remarkable depth, precision, and intensity. Chevalier-Montrachet is one of Burgundy’s most revered white wine climats, long celebrated for producing whites of exceptional finesse and mineral drive.

Makuprofiili
In the glass, this is typically a luminous, pale gold wine with an elegant, polished sheen. The nose is expected to show layers of citrus zest, white peach, ripe pear, and delicate floral notes, framed by subtle toasted oak, crushed stone, and a fine smoky, nutty complexity. On the palate, Chevalier-Montrachet often combines concentration with tension: generous fruit, creamy texture, and bright acidity balanced by a precise mineral core and a long, saline finish. With time in bottle, it can develop even greater complexity, gaining notes of hazelnut, honey, dried flowers, and truffle-like nuance over many years.

Viininvalmistus
The wine comes from Chevalier-Montrachet, a Grand Cru site in Burgundy’s Côte de Beaune, where limestone-rich soils and an exceptional exposure help Chardonnay achieve both richness and lift. Lucien le Moine’s philosophy is to source only top-tier fruit and vinify it with minimal intervention, allowing the terroir to remain front and center. The wines are aged on their lees in new Burgundian oak barrels, bottled without filtration, and handled entirely by hand to preserve texture, energy, and purity.

Ruoka & tarjoilu
This wine pairs beautifully with refined dishes such as lobster, scallops, roast turbot, poached salmon, or poultry in cream sauce, as well as elegant mushroom or truffle dishes. Serve it around 11–13°C to bring out its aromatic complexity and layered palate. Decanting is optional but can be beneficial for a young Grand Cru like this, especially if you want to open up the wine’s deeper aromatics and oak integration.

Tuottaja
Lucien le Moine was founded in 1999 by Rotem and Mounir Saouma, a husband-and-wife team whose shared passion for Burgundy has made the domaine one of the most distinctive names in the region. Based in Beaune, they built their reputation by working exclusively with selected Premier Cru and Grand Cru sites and by vinifying each wine in their own cellar with a very precise, uncompromising style. Their reputation for innovation, quality, and limited production has earned them widespread acclaim among collectors and critics alike.
