Chardonnay from Puligny-Montrachet, Cote de Beaune, Cote d’Or, Burgundy, France

Winemaker Notes

Wines from Puligny-Montrachet are typified by aromas and flavors of green apple and lemon and tend to be tauter and firmer on the palate compared to wines from neighboring villages. Aging in a small percentage of new French oak barrels lends accents of toast and vanilla. Structured white wines with high acid and grip, Puligny-Montrachet is destined for long aging.

Bordeaux Bard – 91 Points

This Puligny-Montrachet delights with its nutty, earthy nose, accented by oak and green apple. Bright acidity and a solid length make it highly enjoyable, with a lingering nutty finish. This bottle is drinking beautifully now and will continue to impress for a few more years.

Food Pairing 

Pairs well with white fish and shellfish with cream-based sauces, grilled fish, starches, butter, and toasted nuts.
