The Puligny-Montrachet appelation is in the Cote de Beaune, know for the greatest of the Burgandian whites in and around the Montrachet vineyard. The Les Folatieres vineyard sits between 820 feet and 985 feet of elevation on clay and limestone. The vineyard is divided into four climats: Ez Folatieres, En la Richarde, Peux Bois, and Au Chaniot. One suggestion is that the name is derived from folles-terres, crazy earth, created when hard driving rain erodes the soil. Another suggestion is that Folatieres is where folletes, patches of misty fog or ghostly forms collect.
