Puligny-Montrachet from a single named vineyard, made by a fourth-generation family domaine. Bright, elegant and mineral, and everything people love about white Burgundy.
Taste
Ripe lemon and grapefruit with white flowers, acacia and a hint of toasted almond. The palate brings juicy pear, crisp apple and lemon zest, a light touch of vanilla from the oak and a long, mineral finish.
About the Winery/Winemaker
Domaine Borgeot was founded in 1903 in Remigny, at the southern end of the Côte de Beaune, and is run today by brothers Laurent and Pascal Borgeot, the fourth generation of the family. They farm 23 hectares sustainably across Bouzeron, Santenay, Chassagne-Montrachet and Puligny-Montrachet. Les Grands Champs is a named village climat within Puligny.
Why We Love It
Pour it next to a Chassagne-Montrachet and taste two neighboring villages side by side. This one is all lift and precision, and it is gorgeous with crab, scallops, halibut or a simple roast chicken.
