Tasting Notes

Goedhuis, November 2015
A very voluptuous Puligny with its open honeyed fruit flavours, soft and harmonious, with a gentle degree of freshness on the finish. Very graceful.

Neal Martin, December 2015,
Score: 91-93The 2014 Puligny Montrachet 1er Cru Champ Canet, from Carillon's two parcels, already boasts a delightful bouquet that is focused mainly upon cold stone, flint and limestone, rather than fruit. It is a little reserved at the moment, but it is also very well defined. The palate is very well balanced with a killer line of acidity that cuts through the lightly honeyed fruit. The richness of the vintage is locked into this wine, and it lingers beautifully on the sustained and harmonious, linear finish. Drink 2017-2033

Burghound, June 2016,
Score: 90-93(40+ year old vines). Once again there is enough reduction present to render the nose difficult to properly evaluate. Otherwise there is both good volume and richness to the caressing and sappy medium-bodied flavors that culminate in a chiseled, cool and impeccably well-balanced finish. This is always one of Carillon’s finest wines and while in 2014 it doesn’t quite best the Perrières and Referts, it’s still a wonderfully classy effort. Drink 2021+

Sarah Marsh, December 2015,
Score: 18.15The yields were very small - 30% less. This has a juiciness. It is rounded and generous; full and concentrated in the mid palate, but the finish comes though as very mineral and smoothly stoney. Some rich floral notes too. Satin rich texture. It has a polished edges. Drink from 2019

Producer
Domaine Jacques Carillon

The Carillon family have been making wines in Puligny Montrachet since the early 17th century and there is nothing complicated in their winemaking philosophy. Good vineyard management means high quality fruit and then subtle but careful handling will allow maximum expression of the individual terroirs. Jacques’s wines do not focus on power, they are all about purity and integrity and deliciously refined, honeyed fruit flavours.
Region
Puligny-Montrachet
Puligny Montrachet is known as the most delicate of the white wine appellations south of Beaune.Its wines tend to be linear and mineral offering delicate floral and orchard fruit aromatics. Its village and premier cru vineyard area total slightly over 200 hectares but almost half of them are premier cru making them one of the highest proportions of quality vineyards in the Côte de Beaune. Several grand cru vineyards are present, the most notable being Le Montrachet and Bâtard Montrachetwhich it shares with neighbouring Chassagne, but it does have the extraordinary Chevalier Montrachet and the tiny Bienvenues Bâtard Montrachet all to itself. There are a handful of red wines grown, but they tend to be quite light and need to be drunk in their youth.
