Jean-Marc Pillot, Chardonnay, Puligny-Montrachet Les Noyers Bret, Côte de Beaune, Burgundy, France 2018 special

Description

This wine is produced from the sole holdings of the Pillot family in the neighboring village of Puligny. The “Noyer Brets” vineyard is on the southern side of Puligny not far from the border with Chassagne. It is a lieu-dit situated just beneath and to the east of “Les Enseigneres” and Bienvenues Batard Montrachet. The vines were planted in 1973. Fermented and aged in small barrel, this cuvée shows the elegance and profound minerality that mark the terroir of Puligny and offers a singular contrast to the Chassagne-situated wines of the rest of the domaine.
