At the heart of the Côte de Beaune, Puligny-Montrachet stands as one of the purest expressions of Chardonnay anywhere in the world—defined by its tension, minerality, and quiet power. Few vignerons articulate this terroir with as much clarity as François Carillon, whose domaine continues a lineage deeply rooted in Puligny, with holdings across many of its most distinguished sites.

Carillon’s approach is one of restraint and precision: organic farming, meticulous vineyard work, and élevage tailored to each parcel. The result is a collection of wines that speak fluently of place—each Premier Cru a distinct lens on Puligny’s limestone backbone and nuanced exposures.

A rare opportunity to access a cross-section of Puligny-Montrachet through one of its most thoughtful interpreters:

Puligny-Montrachet Clos du Vieux Château 2021: A signature bottling—refined, elegant, and quietly complex, from the domaine’s monopole parcel.

Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Perrières 2018: Entering a beautiful drinking window—layered, savory, and deeply mineral with softened edges.

Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Perrières 2023: A study in structure and precision; tightly wound with long aging potential.

Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Champs-Gain 2023: Bright and lifted, with floral notes and incisive acidity from its elevated site.

Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Macherelles 2023: Slightly broader in profile, offering texture and depth while retaining clarity.

Why François Carillon, Why Now

In a landscape where Puligny-Montrachet is increasingly scarce, François Carillon represents both continuity and evolution: a custodian of historic parcels with a modern sensibility toward purity and site expression. These wines are not just benchmarks of Chardonnay—they are snapshots of place, vintage, and philosophy, offered here in extremely limited quantities.

For collectors, this is an opportunity to secure both immediate-drinking bottles and cellar-worthy expressions from one of Puligny’s most articulate voices.
