Located in Tailly (Meursault, Burgundy), Domaine Dupont-Fahn was founded in 1975. At the time, Raymond Dupont-Fahn's grandfather believed that his land, which stretches over Les Perrières de Meursault and Sous le dos d' Anes, was too rocky and lacked soil. The INAO accepted that 20 cm of topsoil be added to the soil. A few years later, following a complaint from neighbouring producers, the plot was downgraded to the Bourgogne Blanc appellation for the same reason. Almost forty years later, the vines are deeply and perfectly rooted in their original terroir and produce high-quality wines. This history, undoubtedly unique in Burgundy, attracts the curious and buyers, and it is now very difficult to obtain these wines. Raymond Dupont-Fahn embodies the third generation of winemakers in this vineyard, which is worked without pesticides.

The Puligny-Montrachet Folatieres is a fantastic wine with mineral, salty and savoury notes along with aromas of ripe peach and vanilla with a pleasant bitterness of fruit pits and toasted nuts. This impressively creamy wine lingers with a fine mix of generous ripe fruit and savoury minerality.
