2024 Chateau de Charodon, Meursault

Founded in 2010 by winemaker Louis Vallet of the historic Gevrey-Chambertin winemaking family, Château de Charodon operates from Montagny-les-Beaune in the heart of Burgundy. The estate sources fruit from clay-and-limestone soils across the Meursault appellation, working with long-term grower relationships and sustainable organic practices. Vinification utilizes low-intervention techniques, featuring indigenous yeast fermentations and extended aging in French oak to preserve authentic regional identity. The 2024 growing season introduces a distinct cool-vintage tension and energetic profile to the region, balancing concentration with structural freshness. This bottle is ready to enjoy soon after release while offering solid structure for medium-term cellaring.
