The vine

  • Plot /climat

    Murgers des dents de Chien

  • History

    Located above the Montrachet grand cru field, this climat (or plot) is the upper extremity of the Puligny vineyard; the "dents de chiens" (or dog's teeth) refers to the sharp stones which can be found.

  • Soil

    This consists in alluvium, limestone and Bathonien marl; there are a number of little stone hillocks (or "murgers") nearby.

  • Our plot(s)

    37a10ca planted in 1990.

The wine

  • Description

    100% Chardonnay, handpicked grapes, raised in oak casks.

  • Taste

    Light in colour with a golden hue; good expression on the nose combining a delicate mineral aroma and an aroma of stone fruit; the toasted sensation which develops on the raising process, makes this wine complex and attractive and in the mouth it is full and mineral with a saline finish.

  • Serving temperature

    12/14°C. Recent vintages may be decanted to enhance the aroma.

The vintage

  • March was sunny and budburst happened too early. 5th of April frost made big damages in Puligny. Flowering occurred lately, with wind and rain, many flower aborted, confirming a low yield vintage. Fortunately, summer was hot and dry, enhancing maturation and sugar concentration by the end of summer. Harvest started 13th of September. White wines are generous and fruit driven, but high acidity gives a good concentration and length. Red wines benefited from the hot summer with a complex bouquet and round tanins.
