Description
The story of François Carillon Puligny Montrachet is one of uncompromising loyalty to the terroir. Born from the desire to express with purity the mineral and elegant character of this mythical appellation of the Côte de Beaune, this wine comes from 4 hectares spread over eight different lieux-dits: Derrière la Velle, Reuchaux, Corvée, Levrons, Aubues, Tremblots, Noyer Bret and les Rousselles. They grow Chardonnay vines between 19 and 49 years old, deeply rooted in clay and limestone soils. François Carillon, heir to a centuries-old winemaking tradition, decided to blend these plots not to dilute their identity, but to build a choral symphony of soils, exposure and vine age. The result is a white with surgical precision, restrained intensity and saline depth.
Winemaking
Vinification follows a logic of minimal intervention. The grapes are harvested by hand, gently pressed and the must ferments partly in French oak barrels and partly in stainless steel. Ageing is prolonged on fine lees, with occasional bâtonnage, seeking texture without losing tension. François Carillon Puligny Montrachet avoids over-ripening and excessive oak, opting for a winemaking process that favours crispness, freshness and minerality.
Taste
On the nose, François Carillon Puligny Montrachet displays notes of white peach, ripe pear and subtle citrus, intertwined with hints of chalk, oyster shell and green almond. The palate is linear and vibrant: acidity sets the pace, supporting the fruit and lengthening the finish with echoes of lemon, white grapefruit and wet stone. There is an almost creamy texture, wrapped in salinity, which gives body without losing agility. This is not a wine that seeks to dazzle with volume, but with precision. Puligny Montrachet in its purest form: elegant, taut, deeply earthy.
