Puligny-Montrachet
1er Cru Truffières
The 2020 vintage is a unique vintage. It is marked by historic precocity from budburst, with an advance of 3 weeks, until the harvest which took place entirely in the month of August. High temperatures associated with a lack of precipitation cause a significant water deficit as well as evapotranspiration phenomena in July and August. The absence of rain, on the other hand, allows the health of the grapes to be very satisfactory. The particular conditions of this vintage generate wonderful balances.
Vineyard
Area favorable to the grey truffles from Burgundy. The soil is very limestone and shallow, but also very poor.Wine of great distinction, very mineral and gun flint. Only 600 to 700 bottles.
