The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine Pierre Girardin, son of the renowned Vincent Girardin, is making a name for himself with stunning wines that capture the essence of Burgundy. His Meursaults and Pommards are something special—delicate and layered, without heavy oaky influences getting in the way, just pure, nuanced flavors.

We were among the first to recognise his talent and build a strong relationship with him. Today, this partnership allows us to offer you these cuvées, which perfectly showcase his masterful craftsmanship.
Wine At the heart of its namesake vineyard, the 2022 White Puligny-Montrachet Les Folatières benefits from top-tier clay-limestone soils that impart its persistent, mineral-driven character. Aged 75% in new oak, the wine’s vibrant freshness and intensity are beautifully complemented by a subtle, rounded mouthfeel, preparing it for a long cellaring potential of 10 to 20 years. A remarkable wine crafted for fine dining.
Vinification Hand-harvested, vinified and aged in 456-litre barrels for 12 months, 75% of which are new, then in stainless steel vats for 7 months.
