Winemaker Notes:  This linear wine is composed of a beautiful acidity which underlines and prolongs aromas of white peach and the long citrus finish.

The Puligny-Montrachet comes from four hectares of vines, spread over 8 different localities: Derrière la Velle, Reuchaux, Corvée, Levrons, Aubues, Tremblots, Noyer Bret and Rousselles. The vinification is done in the traditional Burgundian style, with fermentation taking place in small oak casks. The wine is then aged in Allier oak.

The Carillon family Domaine dates back to the 16th century. Today, François Carillon farms almost 20 acres of vineyards, located principally in Puligny Montrachet.

CRITICAL ACCLAIM


Jasper Morris - "This powerful, thrilling wine has ripe green apple and pear aromas and hints of flint, smoke, and spice. A racy acidity, even from the heat of the 2022 vintage, carries the impressively dense extract to an interminable finish. The grapes are from two parcels that François Carillon farms in the centre of Puligny Perrières, north of Boillot's monopole Clos de la Mouchère. They are pressed as whole clusters and fermented in cask (15% new), where they age for a year, followed by a further year in tank.(CC)"


Decanter - "Fine bright mid lemon. The bouquet is discreet but powerful this is the one which needs waiting for, it just offers that little bit extra, a very complete rendition in François Carillon’s forthright style. Retasting the last three, the Puligny-Montrachet Les Perrières definitely has it all. Bravo! Drink from 2029-2036. Score: 93-96."


Burghound - "Note: from a .50 ha parcel. Airy and cool aromas are comprised by notes of primarily citrus zest, just sliced apple and a whiff of mineral reduction. Here too the palate impression of the medium weight flavors is refined, if not quite as refined as that of the Combettes, while delivering fine length on the detailed and youthfully austere finale. This is lovely and if perhaps not quite as classy, it is still stylish and appealing.*Burghound Outstanding!* Score: 91-93."
