2015 Puligny Montrachet 1er Cru Clavoillons, Alain Chavy, Cote de Beaune, Burgundy, France

Grape: Chardonnay

The Premier Cru Morgeot is the most prestigious vineyard owned by the domaine.

This rich, red clay-limestone soil, in which the vines, planted in 1950, delve deep, gives the wine the round character of great white wines, underpinned and balanced by a lovely mineral structure.  Fourteen months ageing on the lees draw out the natural qualities of this exceptional wine. It is already beautifully full and long, with notes of flowers, yellow fruit and citrus, when young. It is even more surprising with age – undergoing a veritable metamorphosis.  It takes on a golden hue and even more body and substance.

Serve at 12°C

Drink with fish or chicken in a cream sauce, Epoisses or Roquefort cheeses.
