The wine
This Puligny-Montrachet Les Charmes wine features powerful blackberry aromas mixed with notes of citrus and mint. There is good vivacity and a very respectable length on the palate.
About the Producer Dupont-Fahn
Domaine Dupont-Fahn was created in 1975. At that time, Raymond Dupont-Fahn's grandfather believed that his plot, straddling Les Perrières of Meursault and Sous le dos d'Anes, was too rocky and lacked soil. The INAO agreed for 20cm of topsoil to be deposited on the terroir. A few years later, following a complaint from neighbouring producers, the plot was decommissioned for this very reason. Nearly forty years later, the vines are deeply and perfectly rooted in their original terroir and produce superb wines that give some premier crus a run for their money although the plot has never been reclassified. This story, indubitably unique in Burgundy, attracts the curious and the buyers, and it is now very difficult to obtain these wines.
