Estate History and Heritage

Domaine Benoît Ente was established in 1997 in Puligny-Montrachet by Benoît Ente, brother of legendary Meursault vigneron Arnaud Ente. Specifically, Benoît transitioned to organic farming and revolutionized his cellar style by shifting away from heavy oak toward tensile mineral purity. Moreover, his micro-production bottlings are among the most fiercely allocated whites in Burgundy.

Today, Benoît Ente is universally celebrated among the leading masters of modern white Burgundy. As a result, this 2023 village release delivers Premier Cru-level complexity and ageworthy precision.
