Puligny-Montrachet
South-west of the city of Beaune, between Volnay and Santenay in the Côte de Beaune, are a trio of villages - Chassagne Montrachet, Puligny Montrachet and Meursault - where the almost monoculture of Pinot Noir in the rest of the Côte d’Or gives way to rows of Chardonnay and white wines rule supreme.

Côte d'Or Burgundy France 13% White

Les Chalumaux is up high on the Cote - on the border with Meursault. Wonderful energy again - a light feel - less intense than the Sous Les Puits - but still good fresh drive and crackling citrus zip - which grows. Palat...(read more)
