Puligny-Montrachet is the 216 hectare geographical appellation of the white wine villages in Côte de Beaune region, bordered by Meursault to the north and by Chassagne-Montrachet to the south. According to the history books, the village of Puligny gained its name from Puliniacus, a Gallo-Roman military encampment. The Montrachet aspect was added in the last century to stress the consistently excellent quality of the wines produced in the local vineyards. The Chardonnay grapes are fermented in traditional French oak barrels with complete malolactic fermentation and aged between 8 to 10 months.

Puligny-Montrachet 2017 has a bright golden colour. The nose is intense with notes of vanilla and fresh almonds. The full-bodied and rounded mouth shows delicious aromas of yellow peach and almond paste, while preserving a lovely mineral finish. Ideally served with poached-eggs in white wine sauce, Provence style dorade, ham wrapped veal or Chaource cheese.
