Description

2019 Puligny-Montrachet, Domaine Jacques Carillon, BurgundyAs ever, Jacques Puligny, a benchmark for the appellation, comes from seven parcels. Three sit by the southern border with Chassagne, one near the village itself and three to the north by Meursault. Fermented and aged in 15% new oak for the first year, followed by 6 months in tank to marry the different parcels and tighten the wine up over winter, the recipe remains unchanged and so does the result.
