Description

Description:

Montrachet Grand Cru, Marquis de Laguiche, Joseph Drouhin is an intense, elegant Grand Cru white Burgundy. It's heady with hawthorn, spice and faint tobacco aromas. Succulent on the palate with apricot and dried fruit.

Located in the southern part of the Cote de Beaune, the estate of the Marquis de Laguiche is entirely located on the Puligny side of the appellation. A very mild slope and a great south-east exposure. The vineyard is brown-red earth, strewn with white, polished limestone pebble. Plantation density is 10,000 stocks/ha in order to extract all possible nuances from the terroir with a yield 48hl/ha. Low on purpose to limit the production of each vine stock.

At every period of history, a few vineyards have been considered heirloom treasures for their incomparable quality. The Montrachet of Marquis de Laguiche belongs to this Pantheon. This property (2.06 hectares or 5.09 acres) is actually the largest parcel of the Montrachet vineyard and has been in the hands of the Laguiche family since 1776. The Drouhin family is in charge of its cultivation and vinification and, since 1947, has spread and preserved its worldwide renown.
