Pierre Girardin - Puligny-Montrachet - Folatières - White - 2022

Wine:

At the heart of its namesake vineyard, the 2022 White Puligny-Montrachet Les Folatières benefits from top-tier clay-limestone soils that impart its persistent, mineral-driven character. Half-aged in new oak, the wine’s vibrant freshness and intensity are beautifully complemented by a subtle, rounded mouthfeel, preparing it for a long cellaring potential of 10 to 20 years. A remarkable wine crafted for fine dining.

Hand-harvested, vinified and aged in 456-litre barrels for 12 months, 75% of which are new, then in stainless steel vats for 7 months.

Color:

Bright, clear gold.

Nose:

Smoky, licorice notes, touches of white flowers, underscored by oak.

Palate:

With a gastronomic focus, this cuvée presents a taut, mineral profile, delivering well-balanced aging and impressive length on the palate.

Temperature:

Serve between 10 and 12°C in a large glass.

Food and wine pairing:

Shellfish, pan-fried scallops, lobster in sauce, salt-crusted salmon, veal risotto, chicken with tarragon and cream.

Cellar aging:

From now until 2034, and even longer for enthusiasts.

Pierre Girardin, son of the renowned Vincent Girardin, is making a name for himself with stunning wines that capture the essence of Burgundy. His Meursaults and Pommards are something special—delicate and layered, without heavy oak getting in the way, just pure, nuanced flavors.

We were among the first to spot his talent and build a strong connection with him. Thanks to that, we’re able to offer these beautiful wines that showcase his meticulous, artisan approach.
