Sourced from the Les Chalumeaux Premier Cru vineyard, situated on the upper slopes near the border with Meursault, the wine benefits from limestone-rich soils that contribute both precision and saline energy. Domaine Matrot’s long-established philosophy emphasises vineyard transparency and balance, producing wines that favour purity and structure over excessive richness or oak influence. The 2023 vintage delivered ripe, healthy fruit while retaining freshness, allowing the domaine to craft a wine of both generosity and classical restraint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the glass, the wine shows remarkable finesse and focus, balancing citrus-driven freshness with layered orchard fruit and subtle floral complexity. The palate is energetic and mineral-led, with finely integrated oak supporting texture rather than dominating the wine’s expression. Notes of lemon zest, white peach and crushed stone unfold gradually across the palate, accompanied by delicate toasted almond and saline nuances. There is both concentration and lift here, with Puligny’s signature tension carrying through the wine from entry to finish. The structure remains elegant and tightly woven, suggesting excellent ageing potential over the next decade. Precise and sophisticated, this Premier Cru pairs beautifully with lobster, turbot, scallops in beurre blanc or refined poultry dishes with cream-based sauces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOSE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Precise and mineral-driven\u003cbr\u003eAromas of citrus blossom, white peach and lemon zest layered with white flowers, crushed stone and subtle roasted hazelnut notes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePALATE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Focused and finely textured\u003cbr\u003eMedium-bodied with bright acidity and chalky tension, showing orchard fruit, citrus and delicate creamy nuances balanced by saline minerality and restrained oak.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFINISH\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Long and crystalline\u003cbr\u003ePersistent and elegant with lingering citrus freshness, subtle savoury complexity and a refined mineral edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReviews \u0026amp; Accolades\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cem\u003e“Mid lemon and lime colour. Not picking up much nose at first. It is in the fresher, limier, more floral style of Puligny. Prettier fruit through the middle then the salinity at the back makes you salivate. Really classy. Just keeps going.
