Andre Ramonet

Puligny-Montrachet Chardonnay from Burgundy's most exacting terroir.

Andre Ramonet works the limestone slopes of Puligny-Montrachet, in Burgundy's Côte de Beaune, where Chardonnay reaches its most refined expression. The vineyard sits within the orbit of Montrachet Grand Cru, the region's most coveted terroir. The winery's Chassagne-Montrachet, a Chardonnay from the adjacent commune, demonstrates the mineral precision and structure that define white Burgundy at this level. Wine Spectator has rated the wines from this producer. The Côte de Beaune's cool continental climate and clay-limestone soils create conditions where Chardonnay develops complexity without excess ripeness—wines marked by tension between fruit and acidity, with the capacity to age. Andre Ramonet's position in this landscape places it among the region's serious white wine producers.
