Situation géographique et terroir
Bordered by Meursault to the north and Chassagne-Montrachet to the south, the Puligny-Montrachet appellation is at the heart of the world's finest Chardonnay terroir, including the famous Montrachet. Situated just above the "Champgains", on limestone and marl soil, the "La Garenne" vineyard benefits from an ideal south-east exposure. At the time, a "garenne" was a wood surrounded by walls, owned by the lords for hunting small game and more particularly rabbits, hence the expression "lapin de Garenne".
Vinification
Immediately after the harvest, the grapes are pressed in whole bunches in a pneumatic press, then we carry out a static settling of the juice for 24 hours at 12°C. The musts are then put directly into barrels and the alcoholic and malolactic fermentations are carried out.
Lightly toasted so-called blonde, 30% new barrels
