FRANCOIS CARILLON - Bourgogne Chardonnay Cuvée des 5 Siècles 2018

Le domaineFrançois Carillon

Domaine François Carillon, located in Puligny-Montrachet in the Côte de Beaune, is renowned for its exceptional white wines made primarily from Chardonnay. Founded by François Carillon and now run by him and his children, the estate spans 10 hectares on some of Burgundy’s most prestigious appellations: Puligny-Montrachet, Chassagne-Montrachet, and Meursault.

The estate practices sustainable viticulture, with a focus on environmental respect and careful vineyard management to bring out the best in each parcel. Harvesting is manual to ensure optimal fruit selection. Traditional fermentation in oak barrels and extended ageing create wines of complexity and elegance.

Domaine François Carillon’s wines are pure and remarkably elegant. The whites are true gems, offering aromas of white-fleshed fruit, flowers, and mineral notes. They are silky in texture and fresh on the palate, with excellent ageing potential. The Puligny-Montrachet cuvées are especially prized for their precision and balance.
