Vincent Girardin Puligny Montrachet 'Les Folatières' Premier Cru 2023
Vintage Character
The 2023 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Folatières from Vincent Girardin exemplifies the elegance and precision of this esteemed Premier Cru site. Burgundy’s 2023 vintage was marked by a cool, damp spring followed by a warm, stable summer, producing white wines with lively acidity, clarity, and impressive freshness. This vintage is recognized for its balance and value, offering wines with both energy and finesse.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing
Awarded 90+ points by Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate, this Chardonnay opens with classic aromas of white flowers, citrus zest, and delicate stone fruits, underscored by subtle notes of hazelnut and wet stone. The palate is refined and layered, featuring a silky texture, vibrant minerality, and a long, harmonious finish. Its purity and tension make it a versatile partner for dishes such as grilled sea bass with lemon beurre blanc, roast chicken with tarragon, or a creamy Comté cheese, highlighting its affinity for both seafood and fine cheeses.
Winery Background
Vincent Girardin is a respected name in Burgundy, celebrated for his dedication to sustainable viticulture and a winemaking philosophy centered on terroir expression. The Girardin family’s roots in the region run deep, with Vincent establishing his own domaine in the late 1980s. The grapes for this wine are sourced from the renowned Folatières vineyard, known for its limestone-rich soils that contribute to the wine’s signature minerality and finesse. Harvesting is done by hand, and the fruit undergoes gentle pressing before fermentation in French oak barrels, a method that preserves the wine’s subtle complexity and elegance. Girardin’s unwavering commitment to purity and minimal intervention has earned his wines a devoted following among collectors and connoisseurs, making them some of the most sought-after expressions from Puligny-Montrachet.
