Jacques Thevenot Machal

Jacques Thevenot Machal works the Côte de Beaune, Burgundy's southern slope, where limestone and clay soils shape wines of precision and depth. The winery's Pinot Noirs and Chardonnays emerge from premier cru vineyards—notably Puligny-Montrachet's Les Folatières and Meursault's Charmes—sites that demand technical mastery and patience. The Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru 'Les Folatières' anchors the portfolio, a Pinot Noir that has drawn assessment from Wine Spectator, Wine Advocate, Decanter, and Wine Enthusiast. Meursault 1er Cru 'Charmes', a Chardonnay, follows in complexity. The winery also produces Les Charmes Puligny-Montrachet, another Pinot Noir from this hallowed terroir. These are wines built on the Côte de Beaune's classical foundation: structure, mineral tension, and the ability to age. The region's cool continental climate and selective harvest practices yield expressions that speak first to place rather than ripeness.
