the bouquet is tight and lean, with notes of grapefruit and white peach, showing poise and precision. The palate is concentrated and full bodied, with high acidity, lovely ripe fruit, and a compelling tension. Intensely flavoured and long on the finish, this wine promises excellent development with age. One of the truly great producers of this appellation.

Domaine Jacques Carillon

The Carillon family has been making wine in the village of Puligny-Montrachet since the 16th century, beginning with Jehan Carillon, who was a vintner in Puligny in 1520. After completing his studies at the winemaking school in Beaune, France, Jacques Carillon joined his father in the family vineyard in 1980. In 2010, Jacques and his brother split the Carillon domaine and he now farms his 5.25 hectares of vines with wife Sylvia.

The bouquet is impressively tight and lean, but the palate is quick to sing. An incredible density of pineapple and grapefruit, powerful and opulent with an amazing streak of steely acidity providing a perfect equilibrium. One of the truly great producers of this appellation.
Fermented and aged in 15% new oak.
