Domaine Arnaud Baillot Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Referts Blanc 2023

Elegant and complex Puligny-Montrachet from the 1er Cru vineyard "Referts"

A sublime white wine that combines depth and finesse. The Chardonnay grape here reaches its full potential with a lovely balance between fruit, acidity, and a refined minerality.

The wine presents itself with a brilliant golden color and a complex aroma of white flowers, ripe pear, citrus, and subtle notes of toasted nut.

The taste is rich and silky with hints of stone fruit, lemon, and an underlying salty minerality, finishing with a long, elegant aftertaste.

The grapes come from the renowned 1er Cru vineyard “Referts” in Puligny-Montrachet, where the chalky soil and the vineyard’s east-facing location provide optimal conditions for a slow ripening and great complexity.

After hand-harvesting, the wine is vinified with a focus on precision and elegance. It ferments in oak barrels, some of which are new, and matures for 12 months on its lees. This gives the wine depth and a discreet integration of the barrel's spice.

Puligny-Montrachet “Referts” is a wine that deserves attention. It is ideal for dishes such as lobster, scallops, or creamy pasta dishes. Enjoy it at 10-12 degrees, and let its finesse unfold in the glass. A first-class wine for special occasions.
