Louis Jadot Puligny-Montrachet 2016

Puligny-Montrachet, situated to the south of Meursault and to the north of Chassagne-Montrachet, shares with Chassagne a handful of the greatest white wine vineyards in the world. The vineyards are centered around Puligny and a part of the Blagny hamlet, on a gentle, east facing slope, about 230 to 390 m above sea level. The stoney clay and chalk soil, drains well and warms through easily. Chardonnay is the only grape variety used for the white wines.

The wines of Puligny Montrachet are generally characterized by greater firmness and depth than those of Meursault, and by greater refinement and delicacy than those of Chassagne. They are characterized by very distinctive aromas: almond, fern, exotic fruit, amber, and white flowers. His acidity in the mouth is rather subtle. They can be kept between 8 and 12 years.
