Puligny-Montrachet
1er Cru Les Folatières
A demanding vintage. 2023 is now seen as the hottest year with the temperatures above seasonal averages. This vintage is also characterized by significant water deficit during the growing season and strong disease pressure. We also noticed strong heterogeneities in maturity with dynamics that are difficult to anticipate. The harvest was generous, allowing us to carry out a thorough sorting, especially on the Pinot Noir.
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 two different origins of vines.
