WINE DESCRIPTION

Joseph Drouhin Puligny-Montrachet Premier Cru Folatières is a highly sought-after white wine produced by the renowned Joseph Drouhin winery. This wine comes from the prestigious Puligny-Montrachet appellation in Burgundy, France, which is known for producing some of the world's finest Chardonnay wines. The Folatières vineyard is located on a steep slope with a south-eastern exposure, which provides optimal sunlight and drainage for the vines. The winemaking process involves careful selection of the grapes, gentle pressing, and aging in oak barrels to create a wine with a rich and complex flavor profile. This wine is characterized by its elegant and refined style, with notes of citrus, white flowers, and a subtle minerality.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

A beautiful white wine with a golden hue and delicate aromas of honey and rose petals.On the palate, it has a fine balance of zesty acidity and round, mellow flavors of citrus, stone fruits and hazelnuts. The finish is long and elegant, with a hint of minerality. An excellent choice for any special occasion.
