`High quality` are words synonymous with the chardonnay wines of Puligny-Montrachet, and the standard of accommodation offered by le Chevalier deserves the same billing.
The renovation, undertaken by local artisans, and lovingly overseen by the owners, Australian wine makers Paul and Juliet, successfully integrates original traditional materials with those of a more contemporary nature to create a stylish, elegant and spacious living ambiance.
Exposed beams, parquet floors, and tasteful French furnishings, feature throughout le Chevalier, and together with an expansive terrace, you are assured of a restful and comfortable holiday.
Puligny-Montachet is a charming wine village, with a neighbourhood Boulangerie for your morning croissants, l’Epicerie for daily groceries, a cool wine bar for aperitifs, (say Bonjour to Julien) the popular village café, a choice of bistros, and Le Montrachet, an excellent, one star Michelin restaurant. This full range of true Burgundian, gastronomic experiences is just a short walk away.
Paul and Juliet also own an adjoining one bedroom Cottage, The Mews, and while they are both independent of each other, they can be booked concurrently.
