Vincent Girardin
Les Vieilles Vignes Puligny-Montrachet Chardonnay
Puligny-Montrachet, Côte de Beaune, Burgundy, France
Vincent Girardin continues the winemaking tradition of his father and grandfather before him, and expanded the appellations in his domaine either through inheritance, purchase, or a system of leasing called "fermage." Aromas of stone and citrus fruits. The palate shows lemons with crisp apple, mineral & oak notes. This medium-body wine has good balance with integrated acidity, lingering, finishing smooth with a citrus mineral ending. Very Nice!

Lemon custard narrows on the nose to Meyer lemon pith, lime zest, pomelo, gun flint glints with alumina, marmalade mix. Tart lemon palate puckers to a kiss of lemongrass awash in a lemon-lime sea of brine; spongey lemon pith finish.

Yes. Clove, anise, and a butterscotch finish. Great value from a Puligny-Montrachet.

1 person found it helpfulJan 18th, 2015Had another bottle, aged very well. Vincent Girardin continues the winemaking tradition of his family before him, and he has greatly expanded the number of appellations in his domaine either through inheritance, purchasing the land, or a system of leasing called "fermage". Straw with aromas of stone and tropical fruits. The palate shows citrus, apple and pear with mineral notes. This medium-body wine has good balance with integrated acidity and finishes smooth, a touch creamy on the end. Very Nice!

Bello minerale anche se c'era un fondo di tappo... 😕 peccato.

So much lees upon opening, a quite simple expression of the appellation but I think it needs a little more time though, there's potential there...

Aug 8th, 2016Beautiful, rich, creamy, with great balance on lemony acidity, pear, and stonefruit. My last bottle of 12 and certainly the best.

Solid wine, but lacking in acidity giving it a looser structure. Still offers a long and composed finish.
