Puligny-Montrachet
1er Cru Les Folatières
The 2022 vintage brought serenity back to the vineyard with a heathy harvest and correct volumes. With rainfall accumulations far from excessive, the year 2022 was marked by average temperatures higher than seasonal norms and rainfall deficits from the start of the vine’s vegetative cycle. At the beginning of April, episodes of frost will recall the terrible nights of April 6 and 7 of 2021, but fortunately with an impact beyond measure. The year 2022 is the year of all records for sunshine with the equivalent of an additional month of July.
Vineyard
The largest terroir of the village, facing to East and with a maximum sunshine. So, it has an early maturity. The Chardonnay can express its power and its elegance because of the important presence of limestone scree and the shallow subsoil. We have there three different origins of vines whose we purchase the grape.
