90 Points Inside Burgundy
The fruit comes from six hectares below Puligny. Mid lemon yellow. Also lightly reductive, but this time there is more flesh to the fruit, a more generous rendition – but up to you which you prefer, stones or flesh.
Winemaker Note
Crunchy and marked by beautiful acidity, this bright wine offers aromas of lime, pear, and peach. Aged in oak barrels from harvest and for nearly a year, with light bâtonnage (lees stirring), this wine is blended and bottled about 16 months after the harvest. This Bourgogne Blanc comes from three parcels of clay-limestone soil located in Puligny-Montrachet and Meursault. The Carillon family Domaine dates back to the 16th century. Today, François Carillon farms almost 20 acres of vineyards, located principally in Puligny Montrachet.
