This linear wine is composed of a beautiful acidity which underlines and prolongs aromas of white peach and the long citrus finish.
Francois Carillon Description
The Carillon family Domaine dates back to the 16th century. Today, François Carillon farms almost 20 acres of vineyards, located principally in PulignyMontrachet. 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.
Burghound: 91 Points
A whiff of smoky reduction is not enough to entirely mask the cool apple and lemon scents. The succulent and round medium-bodied flavors are noticeably finer on the lightly stony, clean and dry finish that would also benefit from developing more depth. Still, I like the delivery and more complexity should reasonably develop if given a chance.
