RATINGS

91The Wine Advocate

The palate is balanced with a fine bead of acidity, quite conservative in style with straightforward, tropical-tinged fruit.

91-93Stephen Tanzer

Pristine aromas of white peach, lemon, lime, noble herbs and white pepper. Tactile, smooth and rich, with sexy saline and floral elements giving the mid-palate a weightless impression.

It is nearly in the center of the Premier Crus and is the largest Premier Cru in Puligny-Montrachet. Burgundy writer Clive Coates has written that “Les Folatieres is a fullish, meaty, mineral wine with plenty of weight of fruit and good grip – a typical Puligny premier cru in fact.”

This white variety originated in Burgundy, but is now grown around the world. Its flexibility to thrive in many regions translates to wide flavor profile in the market. Chardonnay is commonly used in making Champagne and sparkling wines.
