Recognised as a masterpiece in viticulture, the d'Auvenay Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Folatieres 1996 is a grand testament to the rich wine region of Burgundy, France. Birthed from limestone-rich soil and nourished by an ideal climate, this wine offers a sublime complexity only achieved through careful nurturing. Hand-harvested Chardonnay grapes are fermented using indigenous yeasts, capturing the signature mineral and floral aesthetics unique to Les Folatieres vineyard. The guiding hand behind this finish is none other than Lalou Bize-Leroy, co-owner of Domaine Leroy. Her strict vitality-driven approach in wine making, coupled with organic and biodynamic farming principles, enhances the pure expression of terroir in this 1996 vintage. This wine has aged gracefully, delivering a sensual bouquet of green apple, pear, almond and a whisper of vanilla. On the palate, it stands out for its refined acidity, seamless texture and long, persistent finish, making it a perfect example of the excellence of d'Auvenay Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Folatieres 1996. |
