Description
The central part of the Côte de Beaune is dedicated to great wines, the prestigious Côte des Blancs, of which Puligny Montrachet is a part. A few steps away from Montrachet and Bâtard Montrachet, it is today one of the most esteemed white Premiers Crus in the Côte de Beaune.
In the Middle Ages, it is said that the lord of Puligny divided his lands between his children:
The eldest son or "chevalier
The daughters or "pucelles
The "bastard".
