For three generations, the Maratray family has cultivated vineyards across some of Burgundy's most prestigious appellations, including Corton, Corton-Charlemagne, Aloxe-Corton, Pernand-Vergelesses, Savigny-lès-Beaune, and Ladoix. Today, François-Xavier and Marie-Madeleine Maratray continue the estate's commitment to traditional Burgundian winemaking, emphasizing careful vineyard management, low-intervention cellar practices, and wines that faithfully reflect their individual climats. Their monopole vineyards are among the domaine's greatest assets, offering bottlings found nowhere else. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"871\" data-end=\"1516\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"871\" data-end=\"884\"\u003eVineyard:\u003c\/strong\u003e En Naget is a rare Premier Cru monopole owned exclusively by Domaine Maratray-Dubreuil, making the estate the sole producer of this historic climat. Situated on the southeast-facing slopes above the village of Ladoix, the vineyard benefits from classic marl and limestone soils that provide excellent drainage while preserving freshness and mineral tension. Covering just over half a hectare, this privileged site consistently produces Chardonnay that combines the richness associated with nearby Corton with the elegance and precision that define the finest white wines of the Côte de Beaune. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1518\" data-end=\"2230\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1518\" data-end=\"1533\"\u003eWinemaking:\u003c\/strong\u003e The grapes are harvested entirely by hand before gentle pressing and fermentation according to traditional Burgundian methods. The wine is aged for approximately twelve months in French oak barrels, with only about 20% new oak, allowing texture and complexity to develop without overwhelming the vineyard's natural character. This measured élevage preserves the purity of the fruit while highlighting En Naget's hallmark minerality. Notes of white flowers, citrus, and subtle flinty nuances are supported by a supple texture and vibrant acidity, resulting in a Chardonnay that is both approachable in its youth and capable of rewarding additional bottle age. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2232\" data-end=\"2627\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2232\" data-end=\"2254\"\u003eTechnical Details:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ladoix Premier Cru AOC; climat \u003cstrong data-start=\"2286\" data-end=\"2298\"\u003eEn Naget\u003c\/strong\u003e; \u003cstrong data-start=\"2300\" data-end=\"2312\"\u003eMonopole\u003c\/strong\u003e; 100% Chardonnay; approximately 0.53-hectare estate holding; southeast-facing vineyard; marl and limestone soils; hand harvested; fermented and aged for 12 months in French oak barrels with approximately 20% new oak; traditionally vinified; recommended cellaring of 2–6 years. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2629\" data-end=\"3156\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2629\" data-end=\"2646\"\u003eFood Pairing:\u003c\/strong\u003e Butter-poached lobster, Dover sole, halibut, monkfish, roasted chicken, veal in cream sauce, mushroom risotto, pork tenderloin, Comté, Gruyère, and aged goat cheeses.
