Descrizione

The Puligny-Montrachet Au Papillot from Clos du Moulin Aux Moines is a refined and elegant white wine, representing one of the most emblematic examples of Burgundy viticulture. This cru stands out for its sophisticated aromatic profile, intertwining notes of white-fleshed fruit, such as pear and apple, with hints of white flowers and a subtle touch of vanilla and toast derived from barrel aging.

On the palate, the wine presents a balanced structure and remarkable complexity. The acidity is well-balanced, contributing to the wine's persistent freshness, while the typical minerality of Puligny-Montrachet's limestone soils imparts a long and crisp finish. This is a wine that, in addition to expressing the pure essence of its terroir, promises excellent aging potential.

Ideal for accompanying sophisticated fish or shellfish dishes, the Puligny-Montrachet Au Papillot is also a magnificent companion for soft cheeses. Perfect for a special evening or as a refined gift for an enthusiast of high-quality white wines.

Winery history

The site is an ancient wine estate mentioned as early as the Middle Ages: the Clos del Moulin aux Moines is associated with the monks of the Abbey of Cluny and later with the Abbey of Cîteaux. Over the centuries the property changed hands several times; the Andrieu family is recorded as the controlling owner since their acquisition in 2008, during which the estate was renovated and relaunched.

Production philosophy

The estate favors a low-intervention approach to showcase the character of the terroir: organic and biodynamic cultivation applied to the entire vineyard, manual harvesting, limited use of winemaking technologies, and some low-sulfite winemaking experiments for the alternative cuvées.

Terroir and vineyards
