Domaine du Château de Puligny Montrachet

Up until a few years recently, I didn’t believe I liked white wine. I was happy in my world of red. When I went to Manresa and the server suggested that I try some White Burgundy, I was game. Very intriguing I thought. RN74 opened soon after and what better place to try another Meursault but at a place that is ALL about Burgundy? Perusing their vast list I happened on upon the 2005 Château de Puligny Montrachet. Everyone at the table raved about the wine. This was a game changer. So much so that I’ve been obsessed with this wine. I’ve since found it at the Fifth Floor, Aziza and a handful of other places. The problem with vintage wine is, it’s a scarce commodity. As I seek it out it gets harder and harder to find and some point it will no longer exist and I will be sad. However I have the Domaine du Château de Puligny-​Montrachet to make me a believer in white wine. It’s been a huge revelation.
