- Domaine René Monnier is a leading and sought-after producer in Meursault's heart. With over 18 hectares of vineyard in the most prestigious Crus of the Côte de Beaune, Domaine René Monnier is one of the largest privately owned domains in the region. Founded in 1723, the domain is now in the hands of the tenth generation, with all the wines being skilfully made by Xavier Monnot. Domaine René Monnier's white wines are fresh and stylish, avoiding excessive use of oak, while the reds are the epitome of fine Burgundy, demonstrating the balanced, silky style of this house.
The grapes were meticulously sorted and gently pressed as whole bunches, followed by static settling of the must before fermentation. Traditional vinification methods were used. Fermentation took place in barrel, and the wine was then matured in oak barrels, of which 25% were new oak, for 14 months. Delicate bâtonnage took place, imparting texture and complexity. The wine was lightly fined and filtered before being estate bottled by gravity.
This Puligny-Montrachet shows great typicity. Its pure mineral core is complemented by notes of hazelnut and brioche. It is classic and elegant.
