The Premier Cru Les Pruliers lies at mid-slope between 240 and 260 meters above sea level, where we find a great complexity of soil, from outcropping rock to scree from the upper slope.

This Puligny-Montrachet 1er cru les Combettes from the domaine Jean-Marc Boillot is a great gourmet wine. This wine has a complex, seductive perfume of honeysuckle and white peach with hints of tarragon and celery salt, more discreet, however, when young. Much fuller on the palate, very saline, great maturity and roundness in refinement. Liveliness, tension and a charming, sweet finish of yellow fruit.

Trilogie du domaine Hubert Lignier is a grouping of 3 parcels. These three parcels, located north-south of the village on the edge of the 1ers Crus, produce small yields (30 hectoliters/ha on average) given the age of the vines. The wines are often colorful and fleshy, with good density. You'll need to wait a few years to fully appreciate them. They can also be kept for over 20 years.
