Vineyards situation : Puligny Montrachet, situated to the south of Meursault and to the north of Chassagne Montrachet, shares with Chassagne a handful of the greatest white wine vineyards in the world. The Premier Cru vineyards of Puligny Montrachet, noted for the exceptionally high and consistent quality of the wines they produce, stretch across the upper half of Puligny's slope from Meursault to Chassagne.
Characteristics : « La Garenne » climate lies near « Les Folatières », and « Les Referts » roughly midway between Meursault and Montrachet. Chalky soil of medium density.
Wine making : Maison Louis Jadot practices traditional oak vinification to yield a full-flavoured yet graceful wine of exceptional balance and breed, with complex, distinctive aromas typical of Puligny.
Winemaker's comments / Gastronomy : The « Clos de la Garenne » of Duc de Magenta is a full and generous yet extremely elegant wine, with distinctive peach and almond nuances as well as fruity and oaky aromas both on the nose and on the palate. This great white wine is destined to honour haute cuisine : shellfish cooked in a court-bouillon, creamed and poached fish, poultry liver pâtés, ripe cheeses like Munster and mature Comté.
Preservation : This wine will age 10 to 15 years.
