WINE DESCRIPTION
Bachelet-Monnot Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru 'Les Folatières' is a premium white wine produced by the renowned Bachelet-Monnot winery in the Puligny-Montrachet appellation of Burgundy, France. The wine is made from Chardonnay grapes grown in the Les Folatières vineyard, which is known for its limestone-rich soil and ideal south-east facing slope. The winemaking process involves careful selection of the grapes, gentle pressing, and fermentation in oak barrels, followed by aging on the lees for several months. The resulting wine is a complex and elegant expression of the terroir, with notes of citrus, white flowers, and minerality, balanced by a creamy texture and a long, refreshing finish. This wine is a must-try for any Chardonnay lover looking for a high-quality, terroir-driven wine from one of the most prestigious appellations in the world.
