Jean-Charles Fornerot works the limestone slopes of Côte de Beaune, where Burgundy's most precise expressions of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay emerge. The winery's Chassagne-Montrachet anchors a portfolio rooted in two of the region's most demanding terroirs. A Pinot Noir from the village itself shows the dark cherry and mineral tension characteristic of the appellation, while the premier cru Chardonnay from Les Champs-Gains captures the white wine complexity Chassagne-Montrachet is built on. Saint-Aubin 1er Cru Les Perrières, a Pinot Noir from the neighboring hillside, extends the range into a site known for wines of structure and finesse. Wine Spectator has rated across the portfolio. These are wines of restraint and definition—the product of a region where soil and exposure dictate character more than any winemaker's hand.
