Puligny-Montrachet Premier Cru AOC

Drouhin is one of Burgundy’s finest producers and Puligny Montrachet is one of their greatest wines. A superbly poised, complex, Premier Cru from a vintage critic James Suckling said “hit the bullseye” for Burgundy. Delicious now or a gem to age.

Critic Neal Martin was full of praise for this third-generation family producer, saying “Drouhin continues to demonstrate what a class act they have become.” Maison Drouhin was founded 130 years ago and is now run by the four grandchildren of the original owner. Their magnificent portfolio extends from Chablis to the Mâconnais. They are firm believers in organic and biodynamic viticulture, part of their philosophy of meticulous attention to detail throughout their range. The superb 2019 vintage yielded small volumes of beautifully poised, intensely flavoured grapes. 12 months of ageing in French oak barrels (25% new) added complexity and toasted almond notes to this fin-boned white. Drinking now but open early, or it has potential to age.
