Plot
Puligny-Montrachet shares with Chassagne the most perfect expression of Chardonnay. Just a few meters from the Grands Crus, the Controlled Designation of Origin established in 1937 offers a white wine with a strong personality and a high reputation.
Vinification / Aging
The grapes are pressed directly after harvest, then alcoholic and malolactic fermentations take place in oak barrels. Aging lasts around 12 months before preparation for bottling.
Tasting
The white wines of Puligny offer a set of aromas combining white flowers, honey with a mineral structure. In the mouth, it is charming in its beginnings, the liveliness gives way to elegance.
Food and wine pairing
The Puligny Montrachet is intended to honor haute cuisine: great crustaceans, foie gras, without forgetting its service on fish such as sole meunière, salmon. Epicureans will know how to combine them with the flavors of ripe, very fragrant cheeses: Époisse, Bleus and Comté Vieux.
