Pulligny-Montrachet Blanc 2022 | Wine from Domaine Berthelemot

The Domaine Berthelemot, founded in 2006 by Brigitte Berthelemot, is located in Meursault, at the heart of the Côte de Beaune. With 15 hectares of vineyards, the estate spans prestigious appellations such as Meursault, Puligny-Montrachet, Chassagne-Montrachet, Pommard, and Beaune. Since 2017, the arrival of her son Thomas has brought new energy to the estate. Certified organic since 2021, the estate emphasizes biodynamics and environmental respect, ensuring authentic and expressive wines.

The Pulligny-Montrachet Blanc 2022 comes from the lieux-dits Les Rechaux and Les Meix. Les Rechaux, evoking warmth, is distinguished by a clay-silt soil, while Les Meix rests on a clay-limestone terroir. Composed exclusively of chardonnay, this wine is hand-harvested and aged in oak barrels. It reveals subtle aromas of ripe fruits, citrus, and floral notes. On the palate, its noble minerality, richness, and length make it an exceptional wine, typical of the Puligny-Montrachet terroir.
