Arbois Pupillin Chardonnay “Les Charots” 2023 Cellier Saint Benoît
The Arbois Pupillin Chardonnay “Les Charots” 2023 from Cellier Saint Benoît is a strikingly pure and refined expression of Jura Chardonnay, sourced from the prestigious terroirs of Pupillin, one of the most renowned villages in Arbois. This single-parcel cuvée perfectly reflects Benjamin Benoit’s philosophy: careful vineyard work, minimal intervention and an unwavering focus on terroir expression.
“Les Charots” stands out for its ability to combine delicacy with impressive depth. On the nose, it reveals elegant aromas of white-fleshed fruit, subtle citrus notes and a fine mineral undertone, creating a sense of clarity, balance and precision. The aromatic profile is restrained yet expressive, inviting rather than overpowering.
On the palate, the wine is focused, vibrant and harmonious, with a refined texture and a slow, layered development. Natural freshness supports the structure, leading to a long, persistent and luminous finish that highlights both finesse and complexity. This is a Chardonnay of poise and character, designed to evolve gracefully over time.
While already enjoyable, “Les Charots” truly benefits from a few years of ageing, with a cellar potential of 6–8 years, during which it will gain further depth and aromatic complexity.
At the table, it pairs beautifully with fish dishes, seafood and creamy white meats, enhancing its gastronomic appeal. A sophisticated and expressive Chardonnay that captures the true spirit of the Jura.
