Puligny Montrachet: Domaine Dupont-Fahn Les Grands Champs

The region of Burgundy, also known as Bourgogne, has a rich and opulent history. In the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries, the Grand Duchy of Burgundy reached as far as Belgium and the North Sea, becoming renowned for its riches, culture, and wine. Building on vineyards planted by the Romans and later cultivated by medieval monks, the region established a winemaking legacy that endures today. Despite being geographically small, Burgundy produces some of the most expensive and sought-after wines in the world, its limestone soils lending them a uniquely appetising minerality that sets a Burgundy apart from its peers.

Making high-quality whites from Chardonnay, the Puligny-Montrachet appellation, located in the Côte de Beaune region of Burgundy, is widely celebrated and considered to produce some of the greatest white wine in the world. Its production spans over 230 hectares between Meursault to the north and Chassagne-Montrachet to the south. With four Grand Cru vineyards and 17 Premier Crus, the grapes yield wines of an elegant, intense, and mineral style.
