Description

The bouquet of this Puligny-Montrachet is discreet but it has balance and class. The texture is alluringly rich through the middle but the wine finishes on minerals and leaves a very stylish aftertaste.
Jasper Morris MW, Burgundy Director

Jean-Philippes crop is down from 30 to 40% after the cold and wet flowering, but he is very happy with the quality. He started picking on Sunday 19th September and had finished before the rains came the following Friday. This is a domaine which has been consistently reliable in recent years, delivers excellent value for money and enjoys much deserved success.
