2024 Benoit Ente, Puligny-Montrachet, 1er Cru Clos de La Truffiere

Domaine Benoit Ente is a family-run estate based in Puligny-Montrachet, where Benoit has worked with his inherited vines since 1990 to emphasize the specific character of his village holdings. This wine is made from Chardonnay grapes grown in the Clos de la Truffière, a monopole parcel positioned at the top of the hill on shallow, limestone-heavy soils. In the glass, the wine displays notes of citrus, white stone fruit, and a distinct saline minerality, all carried by a focused and tension-filled texture. The 2024 vintage favored Ente’s commitment to early harvesting, which preserves vibrant acidity and a sense of clarity in the finished wine. This bottling is built for the cellar and offers a precise, long-term expression of its high-altitude terroir.
