Background:
Created in 1964, Maison Pierre Gruber has been the cornerstone of Domaine Jean-Luc & Paul Aegerter’s Burgundian activities since 1988.

Winemaking:
The Pierre Gruber Puligny-Montrachet Blanc 2020 (750ml) is a white Burgundy crafted by Maison Pierre Gruber. Produced from 100% Chardonnay, the winemaking focuses on expressing the prestigious limestone-rich terroir of the Puligny-Montrachet appellation.

Grapes: 100% Chardonnay

Tasting note:
The wine is fermented with natural yeasts and aged for 12 months in French oak barrels, which gives it a rich and complex flavor profile. The oak aging also provides a subtle hint of vanilla and toasty notes to the wine.

Food Pairing:
Pair this elegant, oak-aged 2020 White Burgundy with rich seafood, roasted poultry, or creamy cheeses. For example, lightly grilled salmon in a lemon-dill, classic roast chicken with creamy mushroom sauce, Brie, Camembert, or nutty Comté. Its bright acidity and buttery texture elevate dishes with delicate, savory flavors.
