Puligny-Montrachet Benoît Ente

Imagine a white Burgundy that feels both precise and generous — that's what you get here. Benoît Ente works his vines by hand in the heart of the Côte de Beaune, keeping yields low and letting the Chardonnay soak up every bit of those stony, clay-limestone soils. The 2022 vintage brings ripe citrus, white peach and a touch of hazelnut, with a saline freshness that keeps everything beautifully balanced. Ageing in barrel adds gentle creaminess without ever masking the fruit. Pour it alongside roast chicken, scallops or a creamy risotto — or simply enjoy it on its own and let it charm you.
