Tasting Notes

BH93

Strong notes of reduction and sulfur render this unreadable at present. Otherwise though there is a lovely sense of both freshness and vibrancy to the saline, stony and refined middle weight flavors that possess a very different texture than that of the Combettes, all wrapped in a slightly more complex and strikingly persistent finish. This is good stuff with admirable development potential. Barrel Sample: 91-93

WA90–92

The 2013 Puligny-Montrachet les Perrières 1er Cru has a very withdrawn nose at the moment – hopefully more minerality will surface by the time of bottling. It does begin to open in the glass with delicate popcorn and almond scents – you just want to pry the aromatics open with your fingers. The palate is clean and fresh with orange zest and spicy notes on the entry, a crisp line of acidity and a long build on the finish that finally delivers what you expect from this vineyard with enticing salinity on the aftertaste. Range: 90-92
