- A full and elegant Puligny-Montrachet showing nutty and toasty tones with butter nuances culminating in a long and fresh mineral finish.
Vinified following a philosophy of minimal intervention. The grapes were immediately pressed to preserve the quality. The must was settled for 24 hours before being transferred by gravity to 228-liter French oak barriques where wild yeast fermentation took place at temperatures maintained at below 23°C to retain freshness and aromatics. The wine was matured on its lees for 12 months in barriques from a blend of forests in Central France, with 60% new oak, 30% first use, and 10% second use, without batonnage.

Winery | This Puligny-Montrachet is from a blend of two different climates within the Puligny-Montrachet appellation. The hillside slopes are around 3% gradient and face east which benefit from the gentle morning sun, giving the grapes time to develop complexity, while cooler overnight influences bring balancing acidity. The old vines are gown in complex, stony deep clay and limestone soils and are densely planted. Cultivated according to the traditional methods, they are maintained with a large and aerated canopy for sun protection in the warmer vintages of late. They are sustainably farmed |
