The Tradition cuvée is a blend of Chardonnay and Savagnin aged for two years in barrels under a veil of yeast. It exhibits an elegant and distinctive style, with a range of aromas combining floral notes with very ripe white fruits and nuts. Its full-bodied, distinctive palate, with a lovely richness, pairs beautifully with a savoy-style chicken or all kinds of smoked fish. A wine with aging potential that will keep for a good ten years.

Bettane & Desseauve
Rated 2 stars (A solid, recommendable wine, though slightly more consistent and uniform than the previous one)
About the estate:
The estate overlooks the entire town of Château-Chalon, perched on a rocky outcrop at an altitude of 450 meters. Jean has passed the torch to his daughter Hélène, who returned to take over the business after a career as a translator in Brussels, and now oversees the smooth operation of the 15-hectare vineyard. Certified organic since 2013, the wines are among the vineyard’s greatest successes, particularly the voile wines, the estate’s signature specialty. The yellow wines (4.5 hectares in Château-Chalon) are aged in magnificent vaulted cellars.

About the estate:
The estate was founded in 1985 by Jean Berthet-Bondet, a former mayor of Château-Chalon and an agricultural engineer, as is his wife. Cultivated according to organic farming practices, the 13 hectares of vineyards and vaulted cellars have been managed by their daughter Hélène since 2018.

Rated estate (2024 guide) 1*Star (Up-and-coming stars or quality winemakers producing wines of a high standard—you won’t be disappointed when you taste the wines from these estates)
About the estate:
Chantal and Jean Berthet-Bondet, both agricultural engineers, left the city in 1985 to establish this 11-hectare estate, located equally within the Château-Chalon and Côtes du Jura appellations, and certified organic since 2013. Hélène, Jean’s daughter, is now at the helm. The quality is evolving toward greater expression and purity of the fruit. New cuvées and labels for fortified wines have been thoughtfully redefined, though the cuvées aged under a veil remain the estate’s undisputed stars, with a Château-Chalon that serves as a model for the prestigious appellation.

As for the Ed Gout... I didn't like it. That doesn't mean it's a bad wine, though.
