Jancis Robinson: Stony purity tops the fruit here, at least in
the aroma. But the texture is rich and
creamy. Straightforward, present and correct.
ABOUT THE WINERY
The Carillon family Domaine dates back to the 16th century. Today, François
Carillon farms almost 20 acres of vineyards, located principally in Puligny-
Montrachet.
THE WINE
The Puligny-Montrachet comes from four hectares of vines, spread over 8
different localities: Derrière la Velle, Reuchaux, Corvée, Levrons, Aubues,
Tremblots, Noyer Bret and Rousselles. The vinification is done in the traditional
Burgundian style, with fermentation taking place in small oak casks. The wine
is then aged in Allier oak.
TASTING NOTE
This linear wine is composed of a beautiful acidity which underlines and
prolongs aromas of white peach and the long citrus finish.
