Puligny-Montrachet Jacques Carillon (Domaine) 2011

The wine

Among the best of the Puligny-Montrachet appellation, Jacques Carillon has crafted a cuvée from Chardonnay vines of around 40 years of age. After a year-long maturation in oak barrels (15% new wood) and 6 months in stainless steel, the result is a wine that can be appreciated in its youth. It has a clear, golden colour and a bouquet marked by fruity notes of citrus and white fruit, as well as floral touches and a hint of butter. Its delicate yet persistent texture allows for lovely, gastronomic pairings with fresh goats cheese or fish.
