Domaine Benoît Ente Chassagne Montrachet 'Les Houillères' 2019
Vintage Character
Chassagne-Montrachet ‘Les Houillères’ 2019 from Domaine Benoît Ente is a finely etched white Burgundy from a sought-after lieu-dit lying just below the border with Puligny-Montrachet, combining village-level designation with striking precision and focus. The 2019 vintage in the Côte de Beaune is widely regarded as excellent, marked by a warm, mostly dry growing season that delivered ripe, concentrated fruit yet preserved vibrant natural acidity, resulting in wines with both intensity and tension.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing
In the glass, this Chardonnay opens with lifted aromas of lemon zest, ripe pear, white peach and green apple, layered with white flowers and citrus blossom. The palate is precise yet generous, showing a core of stone and orchard fruits wrapped in a supple, creamy texture, with subtle notes of brioche, butter, cream and delicate baking spice from carefully judged barrel ageing. A chalky, saline minerality and hints of hazelnut and grilled nuts drive a long, focused finish, suggesting impressive ageing potential. It pairs beautifully with seared scallops, roast chicken with morel or other cream-based sauces, and semi-firm Alpine cheeses such as Comté or aged Gruyère, which underscore its depth and finesse.
Winery Background
Based in Puligny-Montrachet, Domaine Benoît Ente has grown from a modest share of the family holdings into one of the most respected small domaines of the Côte de Beaune, admired for the precision and transparency of its whites. Benoît Ente is known for highly attentive work in the vines, keeping yields relatively low and farming with exacting care to capture the character of each parcel, including his small holding in Les Houillères. In the cellar, he follows a low-intervention philosophy with measured use of oak, favouring purity, tension and balance over overt opulence. Production of this cuvée is very limited, reinforcing its desirability among Burgundy enthusiasts and making each release a sought-after example of finely chiselled, site-expressive Chassagne-Montrachet.
