Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Clos du Cailleret Domaine des Lambrays 2016
The wine
Puligny-Montrachet Clos du Cailleret is a premier cru which can hold its head high alongside many grands crus: a sublime bouquet and very powerful juice, with a pleasant freshness courtesy of its citrus aromas, a light richness and great aromatic persistence. This magnificent wine makes the perfect accompaniment to fish and shellfish dishes.
About the Producer Domaine des Lambrays
Domaine des Lambrays is located on the Côte de Nuits in Morey Saint-Denis. It was bought by the LVMH group in 2014. It owes its name to the famous Grand Cru Clos des Lambrays which it owns as a virtual monopole. Besides the Clos des Lambray, the domaine produces stunning Morey-Saint-Denis as well as white wines in Puligny-Montrachet, bringing the total area of the vineyard to 11 hectares. Yield is low (28hl / ha), harvests are done by hand and aging takes places over eighteen months in 50% new oak barriques. The entire range is exceptional. In comparison with the Burgundian elite, prices remain reasonable. But the domaine’s reputation continues to grow worldwide.
