Description

Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Clos Du Cailleret - Clos Des Lambrays is a white wine of distinction from the Côte de Beaune, Burgundy, renowned for its precious terroir and the intrinsic elegance of the region. Made from Chardonnay grapes, this wine expresses a refined complexity thanks to the vineyard's privileged exposure and a skillful aging in French oak barrels, which enriches its structure and aromas without overpowering them.

In the glass, it shows a bright straw yellow color, while on the nose it offers scents of white-fleshed fruits, toasted hazelnut, and delicate floral hints that lead to a fresh, balanced, and persistent palate. The pronounced minerality typical of Clos Du Cailleret gives the sip a vibrant finesse, ideal for accompanying dishes of fine fish, shellfish, and white meats, or soft cheeses. A wine that embodies the excellence and authenticity of the Puligny-Montrachet Premier Cru appellation.

Winery history

Clos des Lambrays has historically been a "clos" in the Côte de Nuits; documents mention a parcel by this name as early as the 14th century. Originally regarded as of lower status, the site was granted Grand Cru status in 1981. Over the course of the 20th century the estate was progressively reunified and, after restoration and enhancement work led by the estate team, it became renowned. Since 2014 the property has been owned by LVMH, which has maintained production according to the estate's traditions.

Production philosophy

Production focused on quality and rigorous grape selection: hand-harvesting and sorting, carefully managed winemaking to preserve the freshness of the fruit, and aging in oak barrels. The Domaine favors low yields and winemaking that highlights the finesse of the Pinot Noir typical of the cru.

Terroir and vineyards

The Clos is located in Morey‑Saint‑Denis, in the Côte de Nuits; the soil varies along the slope: the upper section is more marly, while the lower part features a mix of clay and limestone. It borders other Grand Cru vineyards in the area and occupies a gentle east/southeast‑facing slope.
