2021 Domaine de la Pousse d’Or Les Caillerets: Puligny Premier Cru Cut

The 2021 Domaine de la Pousse d’Or Les Caillerets Puligny-Montrachet Premier Cru Blanc 750ml is a white Burgundy of scintillating mineral energy.

Tasting Notes for 2021 Domaine de la Pousse d’Or Les Caillerets

The wine opens with chiseled aromas of green apple, lemon blossom, white peach, and wet limestone. Furthermore, nuanced accents of crushed chalk, raw almond, and sea spray unfold in the glass. On the palate, a racy line of acidity cuts cleanly through a concentrated and textured mid-palate. Consequently, the finish lingers with mouthwatering saline tension, stony grip, and profound length.

Estate History and Heritage

Domaine de la Pousse d’Or traces its noble history back to the Dukes of Burgundy in the 16th century. Specifically, the modern era flourished under Patrick Landanger, who acquired the estate in 1997 and invested heavily in biodynamics. Moreover, the domaine expanded its historical Volnay roots into elite terroirs across Puligny and Corton.

Today, Benoît Landanger directs the estate with full biodynamic certification and amphora aging experimentation. As a result, this 2021 Les Caillerets stands as a benchmark of modern, unadulterated Puligny-Montrachet.
