Puligny-Montrachet
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 appellation lies at the bottom of the hillside, on brown soil stretching from Meursault in the north to Chassagne-Montrachet in the south. The soil there is clay-limestone with a strong presence of stones. Depending on the location, the style differs a little but always allows you to combine elegance and richness. We are lucky to have a representative from all the Climats of the appellation, 26 in total.

Tasting
Tasting note
A full-bodied nose, marked by an intense energy of yellow citrus fruits. On the palate, the wine is both direct and profound, with a certain power, but also a vibrant energy. The finish is incisive, intensely aromatic, and extremely complex. A superb village wine, brilliantly combining tension, energy, and depth.
