This cuvée is perhaps the most rich and broad of the 1er Cru Pulignys of the domaine with a piercing minerality. It is frequently the most reticent of the wines of the domaine in its youth but it has remarkable staying power.

Les Perrières, located close to the border with Meursault at the bottom of the slope, often seems to show more minerality at Carillon. True to form, this 0.6ha parcel has produced a zesy, crunchy, saline Puligny with some tangerine and citrus fruit and a hint of quince. Drinking Window 2020 – 2027. (

A pungent yet elegant nose reflects notes of mineral reduction, citrus, quinine and a whiff of oak toast. The even sleeker and more tightly would middle weight flavors brim with minerality as well as plenty of dry extract that buffers the moderately firm acid spine shaping the linear and highly persistent finish. This needs more depth but the underlying material is present for that to occur.

The 2018 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Perrières is also unusually textural and immediate this year, bursting with aromas of warm bread, honeycomb, crisp orchard fruit and lemon oil. On the palate, it’s medium to full-bodied, satiny and enveloping, with succulent acids and an open-knit, giving profile.
