"The vines are planted north of Puligny Montrachet, on the border of Meursault. Facing east on a gentle clay-limestone soil slope, the vineyard has the perfect conditions for the Chardonnay grape variety to grow. Concentrated and pure, this Premier Cru combines great aromatic complexity and refined style. The palate is well-rounded with notes of ripe yellow fruits. It has a tonic finish, with hints of spice."
