Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru "Champ Gain"

In Puligny-Montrachet, this climate, close to the renowned Hameau de Blagny, extends over large plots that are longer than they are wide, under the locality of La Garenne or Sur la Garenne. Its name comes from the old French gaaing, gain "pasture, arable land", still used in the dialects of the East and North-East.

Tasting
