Le Montrachet Grand Cru

Montrachet is a myth in the history of wine: the vineyard, classified as an AOP “grand cru” since 1937, which allows the production of this wine, covers 7.80 ha and straddles two neighbouring communes on the Côte de Beaune in Burgundy:

• Chassagne-Montrachet : called Le Montrachet
• Puligny-Montrachet : called Montrachet

Amiot's bottling comes from two tiny parcels of vines on the Chassagne side totaling just .09 ha planted in 1923. The vineyard is so steep, it has never been tended to by a tractor and is worked entirely by hand.

Around one barrel produced annually.
