White Flowers, Crisp Citrus, Wet Chalk, and Pure Puligny Precision

The 2023 Domaine Vincent Girardin Puligny-Montrachet Vieilles Vignes is a crystalline, mineral-driven white Burgundy. Sourced from 45-year-old vines across prime parcels, it reveals aromas of fresh lemon blossom, green orchard apple, crushed chalk, and toasted hazelnut. Medium-bodied and tensile, it combines juicy citrus core fruit with laser-sharp limestone acidity, finishing remarkably pure, saline, and persistent.

Highlights

  • Aged 14–16 months on fine lees in French oak barrels (only 15% new) completely without lees-stirring (bâtonnage) to preserve electric energy and crystalline purity.
  • Bottled according to lunar and biodynamic rhythms under the precision winemaking of Eric Germain.
  • From the balanced, expressive 2023 Burgundy vintage; prime drinking window 2025 through 2034+.

Tasting Notes

Bright, pale straw-yellow with shimmering emerald reflections, it opens with pure aromas of crisp green apples, white peaches, and lemon verbena, seamlessly layered with hawthorn blossom, crushed wet limestone, and a delicate touch of toasted hazelnut. The palate is medium-bodied, straight, and tensile, offering crystalline citrus fruit wrapped in a delicate textural sleeve, propelled by a spine of razor-sharp natural acidity through a long, mouth-watering, and distinctly saline finish.

Serving Suggestion

  • Temperature: Serve at 11–13°C in standard Burgundy or wide white wine stemware.
  • Decanting: A brief 20-minute aeration in the glass allows its chalky reduction and delicate white floral perfume to fully expand. Best enjoyed from 2025 through 2034+.
