The origins of the Clerc estate, originally located on the main square in Pulligny-Montrachet, date back to the 16th century. Since the retirement of Bernard Clerc in mid-2002, Vincent Girardin has been in charge of the vineyards and winemaking. The wines are now made and aged at Girardin’s state of the art facility near Mersault. The Clerc estate is centered in Puligny-Montrachet, and includes 3 Grands Cru vineyards. Girardin and his team harvest entirely by hand and meticulously sort all the grapes to eliminate unhealthy fruit. They are immediately pressed in a pneumatic press to retain maximum fruit and aromatic extraction. Bottling takes place after 13 months barrel aging for the Premier and Grand Crus. The traditional Clerc label has been modernized and is now as elegant and sophisticated as the wines.
