Produced by the historic house of Louis Latour, this Premier Cru white Burgundy comes from the prestigious village of Puligny-Montrachet—renowned worldwide for crafting some of the finest expressions of Chardonnay.
The “Sous le Puits” vineyard, perched on the upper slopes of Blagny with a favorable south-eastern exposure, benefits from excellent drainage and sunlight, contributing to the wine’s finesse and aromatic precision. The name, meaning “under the well,” references a nearby natural spring that nourishes the vines.
Vinified using traditional Burgundian methods, the wine undergoes complete malolactic fermentation and is aged for 8–10 months in French oak barrels (50% new, medium toast) from the Louis Latour cooperage. The result is a beautifully balanced Premier Cru that marries richness with elegance, showcasing the hallmark purity and refinement of Puligny-Montrachet.

Why Liquor Geeks recommends it
This is Premier Cru white Burgundy from Puligny-Montrachet, made by the historic house of Louis Latour from the Sous le Puits vineyard on the upper slopes of Blagny, where a south-eastern exposure, good drainage and plenty of sunlight favor finesse. The 2022 pours a brilliant pale yellow and opens with a delicate nose of ripe white peach and soft vanilla. The palate is round and silky, with marzipan and acacia honey held up by a fine mineral backbone. Complete malolactic fermentation and 8 to 10 months in French oak barrels, 50 percent new with a medium toast from Latour's own cooperage, give it richness without heaviness. It suits the Chardonnay lover ready to step up to a named Premier Cru vineyard, and the collector building out a thoughtful Burgundy shelf. We carry it because it balances fruit, oak and minerality so cleanly, and because its long, elegant finish rewards a slow pour at the dinner table or as a refined aperitif.
Pairs well with
- Roasted or creamy chicken — The wine's round texture and acacia honey notes mirror the richness of roast poultry or a creamy chicken dish.
- Salmon with fennel and lemon — Its delicate white peach fruit and fresh acidity complement the citrus and anise lift of the dish.
- Celebratory fine-dining dinner — The silky palate and long, elegant finish make it a refined centerpiece for a special meal or a sophisticated aperitif.
