Technical Details
Description
Home of some of the world's most extraordinary Chardonnays including the famous Montrachet,
Puligny-Montrachet is the geographical middleman of the white wine villages, bordered by
Meursault to the north and by Chassagne-Montrachet to the south. The vineyard of Puligny Montrachet
<< Sous les Puits >> has a south-easterly exposure and is situated at the top of the
hill of Blagny, just above " La Garenne ", near a source, hence the name of "Sous le Puits"
("Under the Well").
Food pairing
Poultry - foie gras - salmon with fennel and lemon - cheese
Tasting note
Our Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru "Sous le Puits" 2015 reveals a pale gold
color. An exotic and fresh nose of almonds, vanilla and mango. The mouth is ample, round
and "gourmet" with notes of brioche.
