[Mature Bottle Release] In 2018, the yield was sufficient, allowing for the production of Puligny-Montrachet solely from the Lieu-dit "Voitte." The label also indicates Voitte. (In years with insufficient yield, it is blended with wines from other Lieu-dits and labeled simply as Puligny-Montrachet.)
Voitte is classified as a village appellation but is a hidden treasure vineyard located near Les Pucelles and Clavaillon. While Premier Cru wines are valued for their intricacy and delicate expression, Voitte excels in fruit richness and concentration. Given that this is a 2018 vintage crafted by Frederic Cossard, expectations are high, but those expectations will not be disappointed. Cossard's white wines are difficult to estimate the peak drinking window, but enjoying a bottle now is not a bad idea.

Ripe fruits(pear, passion fruits, lemon) with fine chalky mineral and acidity. No oak used. It's a pure taste of Chardonnay on the Puligny soil.
