About the winery:
Domaine Francois Carillon is a Burgundy wine estate based in Puligny-Montrachet, focusing on wines made from Chardonnay. It was formed in 2010 when Francois and his brother Jacques decided to divide their father's estate, Domaine Louis Carillon, regarded as one of the very finest in the village. We can trace the Carillon family's history in winegrowing in the area back to at least 1700.
