His reds are of consistently high quality, with the emphasis being on purity of fruit and smooth, supple tannins. However, it is with whites that he really excels, producing a range of wines which are characterised by their depth of fruit and exquisite balance. These whites are extremely approachable when young but the top crus benefit from 4-5 years of bottle ageing.

The reds are made including stems where possible, if ripe and healthy enough, and minimal handling during cuvaison: no punching down at all. As with the whites there is little reliance on new wood.

Puligny-Montrachet is a commune and appellation d'origine contrôlée in the Côte de Beaune subregion of Burgundy, France. Located between Meursault to the north and Chassagne-Montrachet to the south, this small village sits on the limestone-rich slopes of the Côte d'Or escarpment. The appellation was established in 1937 and encompasses both village-level wines and premier cru vineyards, with the famous Le Montrachet grand cru vineyard straddling the border between Puligny-Montrachet and Chassagne-Montrachet.

The terroir consists primarily of limestone and marl soils with excellent drainage and southeastern exposure that provides optimal sun exposure for ripening. Chardonnay is the sole permitted grape variety for white wine production in this appellation. The premier cru vineyards, including Les Combettes, Les Folatières, and Les Pucelles, occupy mid-slope positions where the combination of soil composition and microclimate creates ideal conditions for producing structured, mineral-driven wines. Traditional winemaking methods typically involve fermentation and aging in oak barrels, with many producers employing both new and used French oak.

Puligny-Montrachet wines are characterized by their mineral precision, citrus fruit flavors, and remarkable aging potential. Village-level wines typically display fresh apple and lemon notes with subtle floral undertones and a distinctive chalky minerality. Premier cru bottlings show greater concentration and complexity, often developing hazelnut and honey characteristics with age while maintaining the appellation's signature mineral backbone and bright acidity.
