 A section within the central part of the Côte de Beaune is devoted to the
 production of great white wines, of which Puligny-Montrachet is
 unquestionably one of the most glorious representatives. Renowned
 throughout the world for its white wines, this vineyard borders on
 Meursault to the north and Chassagne-Montrachet to the south.
 WINEMAKING/AGEING
 Handpicking, sorting of the grapes, gentle pressing so as to respect the
 fruit. 
Alcoholic fermentation and aging on fine lees in oak barrels (20 to 30%
 new barrels) for 14 to 16 months.
 TASTING

 nuts (almond, apricot), which open up to scents of candied fruit. Round
 and structured on the palate, this wine boasts remarkable harmony. The
 finish is long and refreshing.
