laying-down2017 Puligny-Montrachet, Folatières, 1er Cru, Domaine Louis Jadot

From the Héritiers Louis Jadot, its plot sits just above Clos de la Garenne to the northern end of the vineyard. This is simply delightful, with a floral, honeysuckle nose. What is most impressive is the nervy tension which is present through the length of the wine. Bright and precise. Drink 2023-2030.

Export Director Sigfried Pic explains that it was essential to wait for the red grapes to be fully ripe, and that the perfect conditions around harvest allowed them to do so, thus avoiding green notes or harsh tannins. The practice of blocking a proportion of the malolactic fermentation for the white wines was useful, lending the wines a sizzling freshness which balances the sunny fruit of the vintage. Our range is exclusively from vineyards that are owned or managed by Jadot, under the various banners of Domaine Louis Jadot, Héritiers Louis Jadot, Domaine Gagey and Domaine du Duc de Magenta. Ownership is indicated in each note.
