Puligny-Montrachet

Les Meix

"Les Meix" means the houses located in the middle of the domain.

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.

Tasting

Tasting note

The nose of this wine reveals aromas of ripe citrus fruits, pear and white flowers such as hawthorn. On the palate, it is ample and silky, carried by a beautiful tension which balances its richness. The finish is long, marked by notes of toasted almond.
