Puligny-Montrachet 2020
-
Our Puligny-Montrachet 2020 displays a pale lemon-lime color. The nose instantly conjures bouquets of white and orange blossoms as well as citrus notes. The palate is refined and delicate with the typical minterality of Puligny. The finish, fresh and subtle, offers notes of flint and a light toastiness.

The stony soils of Puligny-Montrachet, located between Meursault and Chassagne-Montrachet, are widely known for full-bodied and intense Chardonnays that have been highly sought-after for centuries. Rising between 230 and 320 meters above sea level, the southeast exposures are protected from the winds by the Montrachet slopes.
