The estate and the wine |

Highly sought after by top gastronomic restaurants, Domaine Stéphane Aladame is inseparable from the charming, refined face of Burgundy that continues to captivate seasoned wine lovers.
A shining ambassador for the Côte Chalonnaise and awarded one star by the Revue du Vin de France—a leading French wine publication—this exemplary winemaker raises the bar with every vintage, focusing his small-scale production on carefully selected distribution.
A true gem for those who value purity and authenticity, especially given that the pricing remains remarkably accessible for wines from such distinguished terroirs. |

The 2023 Montagny Premier Cru Les Maroques White is a masterclass in precision and charm. Focused on minerality, this refined wine delivers vibrant freshness and subtle depth, though it’s still holding back a little—a sign of great things to come with time. Aged without new oak, its discreet barrel influence lends a gentle structure without overshadowing the wine’s purity. A beautifully poised bottle with excellent aging potential. |
