Burgundy, France
About this product
Dry, Medium Bodied style of ChardonnayBurgundy, FranceThe François Carillon Domaine, created in 2010, is the long-lasting legacy of a wine family business that dates back to the 16th century in Puligny-Montrachet, a very typical wine village in south of Côte de Beaune - Burgundy’s most renown terroir for white wines. Located in the heart of the village, the estate owns and manages today a sixteen-hectare-vineyard located in Puligny-Montrachet, Chassagne-Montrachet and Saint-Aubin.
Francois Carillon Bourgogne Blanc is made from vines up to 50 years old from three vineyards – two in Puligny and one in nearby Meursault. Like all Carillon Chardonnays, it is fermented and then matured in oak for a year, followed by six months in large vats before bottling. The result is definitive Chardonnay – pale gold in colour, with gentle citrus flavours and a hint of smoky oak, richness balanced by a fine acid structure and accompanying minerality.
