The Burgundy truffle Tuber uncinatum is black on the outside and chocolate-brown veined with white on the inside. Its subtle perfume is highly valued by cooks. The soil in this spot was very well-suited to truffle production in the days when vine-growing was less common here. The old truffle beds, though no longer exploited, still underlie the vines. Our cuvée comes from two equal parcels of vines planted in 1952 and 1986 respectively.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTerroir\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe gently sloping site bears poor and rather shallow soil, red in colour, and containing large numbers of small pebbles which give up at night the warmth of stored sunshine. The grapes, as a result, ripen well despite being grown at an altitude (300-330 metres) unusual for 1er cru wines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHighly perfumed in youth, this 1er cru has everything one would expect of a great white burgundy - richness, power, purity, length and, at the same time, the delicacy and elegance which characterise the wines of Puligny-Montrachet.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Altaya","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47791921627307,"sku":"TE002-17","price":798.0,"currency_code":"HKD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0796\/3023\/7867\/files\/thomas_morey_puligny_montrachet_1er_la_truffiere.png?v=1789193592","url":"https:\/\/www.regiswine.com.hk\/products\/thomas-morey-puligny-montrachet-1er-la-truffiere-2017","provider":"Regis Wine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
