✨ Technical Specifications
The Montrachet Grand Cru 'Marquis de Laguiche' is one of Burgundy's most legendary white wines, representing an extraordinary partnership that dates back to 1947. The Laguiche family, owners of the largest parcel of the famed Montrachet vineyard since 1363, entrusted the cultivation, vinification, and distribution of their precious vines exclusively to Maison Joseph Drouhin. Located on the Puligny-Montrachet side of the slope, this exceptional terroir features optimal sun exposure and complex limestone soils that yield Chardonnay of unparalleled depth and elegance. Drouhin vinifies this masterpiece with utmost respect for tradition, utilizing gentle pressing and aging in French oak barrels to preserve the pure, majestic expression of the terroir. The resulting wine is renowned for its sublime complexity, balancing rich textures of white peach, hazelnut, and honey with a precise, mineral-driven acidity.
