The wine region of Puligny-Montrachet Premier Cru

17 Premier Cru climats in southern Côte de Beaune, 100% Chardonnay: identity whites of structure, tension and terroir — elegant rather than fruity, precise and long. Hawthorn, hazelnut, almond, green apple, flint, butter then honey with age. Key climats: Pucelles and Clavoillon (mineral), Folatières (expressive), Combettes (generous), Perrières (elegant). Restrained oak vs Meursault, 10-15 years ageing, most precise Burgundian Chardonnay.

Some lively Aligoté and light Gamay (Mâconnais). 29,500 ha, 84 tiered AOCs (Régionale, Village, 1er Cru, Grand Cru), 1,247 UNESCO Climats.
