Vendor code : 1367
The Philippe Colin Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Demoiselles 2022 is a premier offering from Domaine Philippe Colin, crafted from one of Burgundy’s most prestigious vineyards. Situated on the Puligny-Montrachet slope, the Les Demoiselles vineyard enjoys a high proportion of limestone in the sub-soils, which brings a distinct minerality to its wines. This 2022 vintage expresses the purity of its terroir with remarkable balance, lively acidity, and layers of minerality that showcase the vineyard’s unique character. Two barrels of the 2022 Puligny-Montrachet Les Demoiselles 1er Cru exist this year.

Philippe Colin approaches winemaking with precision and restraint, allowing the terroir of Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Demoiselles to shine. Grapes are meticulously handpicked at optimal maturity, with the juice gently extracted through pneumatic pressing to preserve the delicate aromatics. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless-steel vats, using natural yeasts to maintain the wine's authentic profile. Following fermentation, the wine is aged in 500-liter French oak barrels, which impart subtle oak influence without overshadowing the vibrant fruit. Domaine Philippe Colin’s expertise ensures that each bottle captures the essence of the Puligny-Montrachet region, making this a must-have for connoisseurs seeking elegance and depth in a premier cru wine.
