Taste: On the palate, it is medium-bodied with silky tannins and bright acidity, carrying flavors of tart red currant, cranberry, and a touch of forest floor. A stony, mineral edge lends tension through the mid-palate, and the finish is clean, fresh, and slightly savory.
Pairing: For balanced pairings, focus on dishes with earthy, herbal, or mildly savory components. Try it with rosemary-braised rabbit or a porcini and sage risotto where both dishes bring out the wine’s foresty tones and savory depth.
About: Domaine Marguerite Carillon is based in the town of Meursault, within the Côte de Beaune subregion of Burgundy. This small, quality-driven domaine traces its lineage back to one of Burgundy’s oldest winemaking families. The Carillon name has appeared in Puligny-Montrachet records since the 16th century, though Marguerite Carillon established her eponymous label independently from her family’s larger holdings.
