What kind of wine is it
Jacques Carillon Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Champs Canet is a still white wine from Burgundy made entirely from Chardonnay grapes. Careful attention in the cellar shapes its refined and subtle character, enhanced by delicate floral notes that define its sensory profile. Its solid structure is the result of a rigorous production process, capable of highlighting the natural harmony of the variety. It pairs beautifully with dishes based on white fish and white meats.
Where does it come from
This wine originates from the renowned commune of Puligny-Montrachet in Burgundy, an area of excellence dedicated to Chardonnay. The designation Premier Cru Les Champs Canet identifies a specific plot in the area, enhancing its unique soil and climate characteristics. The grapes come from old vines about forty-five years old, cultivated according to organic and sustainable principles. Such agronomic management preserves the integrity of the raw material, delivering all the authenticity of the Burgundian terroir in the glass.
How is it produced
Vinification follows a maturation process designed to enhance the grape's natural qualities. The wine initially rests for a year in barrels, some of which are new, where it acquires structure and complexity. It then matures for six months in stainless steel tanks, a crucial stage for precisely defining the aromatic profile. A light filtration precedes bottling, followed by a further eighteen months of rest. The result is a wine of great elegance, perfect to pair with selected cheeses.
