Domaine Louis Carillon is a 27-acre estate in Puligny-Montrachet. Among those who collect white Burgundy, the domaine is something of an insider’s secret. The family has been making wine and growing grapes in the area for nearly 400 years and the current domaine is named for the father of the two brothers, Jacques and Francois Carillon, who now run it. Carillon grows primarily Chardonnay and a small amount of Aligote. The estate includes one Grand Cru vineyard in Chevalier Montrachet, and nine Premier Crus in Puligny-Montrachet, Chassagne-Montrachet and Saint-Aubin. Clive Coates has written that the domain’s wines “are fine but understated…when I sampled them blind in bottles they always came out near the top…and (I) buy lots for myself.”
Les Perrieres is a 21-acre Premier Cru vineyard in Puligny-Montrachet, in Burgundy’s Cote de Beaune. The vineyard includes the 10-acre Clos de la Mouchere, a monopole belonging to Domaine Jean Boillot. Les Perrieres is between Les Combettes, Les Referts and Le Clavoillon.
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.
