Tasting

Tasting note

The aromas of this wine express the fruits with white pulpit (pear, peach ...), with buttered notes. Of a beautiful fracher in the mouth, its texture is creamy, of a beautiful outfit with a zest of nerve that surpasses it. The selection of vines for this cuvée allows to produce a Burgundy White more aristocratic, more tense and serious in intensity, more Puligny!

Food pairings

It will perfectly accompany fish and shellfish, white meat.
