2024 Carillon François Les Perrières Puligny-Montrachet 1er cru Blanc 750ml

2024 François Carillon Les Perrières: Mineral Puligny Grandeur

The 2024 François Carillon Les Perrières Puligny-Montrachet Premier Cru Blanc 750ml represents the pinnacle of stony, chiseled Côte de Beaune terroir. In particular, Les Perrières takes its name from ancient stone quarries, where Chardonnay roots plunge into pure fractured limestone bedrock. In addition, the 2024 harvest highlights pure orchard fruit, vibrant natural acidity, and laser-sharp precision.

Tasting Notes for 2024 François Carillon Les Perrières

The wine opens with crystalline aromas of green apple, Meyer lemon, white blossom, and pulverized chalk. Furthermore, delicate notes of wet flint, toasted almond, and sea spray develop as the wine breathes. On the palate, a racy line of acidity cuts cleanly through a concentrated, silky mid-palate. Consequently, the finish lingers with mouthwatering salinity, limestone grip, and refined poise.
