The wine region of Puligny-Montrachet
Global cathedral of Chardonnay in the Côte de Beaune: Chardonnay signature as the white king (99. 5%) — green-gold with silvery glints, racy and mineral with notes of candied citrus, white peach, white flowers, toasted almond, light honey and signature chiselled gunflint, pure tension and infinite finish. 4 mythical Grands Crus (Montrachet, Chevalier, Bâtard, Bienvenues-Bâtard) and 17 Premiers Crus. AOC (1937), ~210 ha, marl-limestone, ageing 10-30 years.
The wine region of Burgundy
Absolute reference for great terroir wines: opulent, mineral Chardonnay in whites (chiselled Chablis, buttery Meursault, majestic Montrachet), fine and silky Pinot Noir in reds (full-bodied Gevrey, structured Pommard, delicate Volnay). Exceptional age-worthy wines with complex notes - red fruits, undergrowth, butter, hazelnut. Some lively Aligoté and light Gamay (Mâconnais). 29,500 ha, 84 tiered AOCs (Régionale, Village, 1er Cru, Grand Cru), 1,247 UNESCO Climats.
The word of the wine: Oenologist
Specialist in wine-making techniques. It is a profession and not a passion: one can be an oenophile without being an oenologist (and the opposite too!). Formerly attached to the Faculty of Pharmacy, oenology studies have become independent and have their own university course. Learning to make wine requires a good chemical background but also, increasingly, a good knowledge of the plant. Some oenologists work in laboratories (analysis). Others, the consulting oenologists, work directly in the properties.
