Pierre Girardin - Chassagne-Montrachet 2023

Pierre-Vincent Girardin is a 13th generation Burgundian winemaker who grew up among the vines in his father’s Domaine. Starting his own label with the family holdings of Les Folatières in Puligny-Montrachet at the age of 21, he has become a formidable force among young winemakers in Burgundy. Expanding beyond the 4.5 hectares, his family contacts brought him access to top growers in Puligny Folatières, Volnay Clos des Chênes, Pommard Epenots, Corton-Charlemagne. 

This Chassagne-Montrachet reveals a rich, elegant palette of aromas. The nose is marked by notes of green apple, juicy pear, white flowers such as acacia, and a slight mineral touch reminiscent of flint. On the palate, the attack is fresh and lively, developing into a full, silky texture. The balance between acidity and roundness gives the wine remarkable harmony. The finish is long and persistent, with hints of toasted hazelnut and a delicate buttery note. This wine has an ageing potential of 5 to 10 years, allowing connoisseurs to enjoy it at maturity and appreciate its aromatic development.

100% Chardonnay.
