The whites go through a long press before being fermented with indigenous yeasts in larger 350L barrels and are aged for 12 months in barrel and an additional 6 months in stainless steel tank before release. The comparisons to some of Burgundy’s elites make complete sense as the resulting wines are breathtakingly layered, racy, and achingly long. Their Puligny-Montrachet is a\u003c\/span\u003e blend of six parcels in Puligny-Montrachet, f\u003cspan\u003eermented and aged in 350L barrels (20% new) for 12 months + 6 months in stainless steel. This is just a beautiful white Burgundy at the top of its category. Very lightly reductive with green apple, hazelnut, orange rind and a touch of cream. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"French White","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45340815786169,"sku":"385","price":138.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/7630\/2521\/files\/Bachelet_Monnot_Puligny_Montrachet.png?v=1758571709"},{"product_id":"domaine-douhairet-porcheret-volnay-1er-en-champans-burgundy-france","title":"Domaine Douhairet-Porcheret Volnay 1er En Champans, Burgundy, France 2022","description":"\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e100% Pinot Noir\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePracticing Organic\u003cbr\u003e  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.mwines.com\/product\/modo-vcham\/\" title=\"Domaine Douhairet-Porcheret Volnay 1er Cru En Champans\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eView winemaker fact sheet\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHeadquartered in Monthélie, in the heart of the Côte de Beaune, Domaine Douhairet-Porcheret covers 8 hectares of vineyards in Monthélie, Pommard, Volnay, and Meursault.
