Puligny-Montrachet 2024
Trade Tools
France / Burgundy
This wine is sourced from multiple terroirs within this iconic village, home to the world's most acclaimed white wines. Assembled to represent the whole village instead of any singular terroir, this approachable white presents a typically floral and elegant set of aromas and flavors in a textured and supple package, with a remarkable complexity which hints at the power of the top Grand Cru cuvees.
Harvest Note
The 2024 vintage was challenging and ultimately saw severely reduced yields due to excessive rainfall with warm temperatures, leading to poor flowering and uneven fruit set and pressure from downy mildew. Low lying parcels suffered the most. Harvest began with dry weather on September 13th, and the small yields arrived in good condition.
Tasting Note
Hints of brioche, white flowers and lemon zest lead to a silky mouthfeel and generous creaminess on the palate. Additional spice notes emerge over the course of the long finish.

About the Grape
Chardonnay
Though it has a distinctive profile, Chardonnay reflects other factors such as soil composition and vinification technique. Chardonnay is a reliable, hardy and prolific vine whose only real vulnerabilities are frost and uneven development of fruit.
