In 1879, Puligny added its name to that of its more renowned Grand Cru: Montrachet. The "La Garenne" climat covers 9 hectares of vines situated just above"Champ Gain" on the upper parts of the hillside. The name of this parcel (Garenne or Varenne) was a term used in the Middle Ages to refer to a wooden area where hunting was reserved for the Lord. In September 2012, the press discovered that the United Kingdom was soon to have an heir when the Duchess of Cambridge - Kate Middleton - declined a glass of our Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru "La Garenne".
Winemaker notes
Attractive nose offering subtle and seductive notes of citrus and exotic fruits combined with delicate toasty notes. The palate is rich and well-balanced with a smooth mouthfeel and taut, mineral structure. A very harmonious wine with exceptional aromatic persistency.
