Puligny-Montrachet

From vines planted in 1947. Single vineyard plot. 33% new oak. Berries are smaller here so more intensity & minerality in the finished wine. So well balanced. A wine you really want to drink - already charming and in...(read more)

Fruit comes from two plots. 27% new oak. Touch of reduction on the nose but a bit of a swirl in the glass reveals white flowers & orchard fruits. Feels leaner than previous wines. Quite an elegant, delicate style. Pr...(read more)

From 40 year old vines in ‘Les Houlières’ (just 200m from the Thomas-Collardot parcel.) This is good and straight and muscular. A very 'Puligny' Puligny. Drive, tension and power are the key notes here, but there...(read more)

There's more obvious ripe fruit here than the previous two wines as you'd expect but it's so Puligny. Very elegant and nicely pure without any leanness. White flowers, a touch of oak and ripe white orchard fruits. There'...(read more)

Good classic nose, fresh, pure and clean. Palate has real energy and a pure tight focus. Breadth builds - there is white crunching apple flesh - warm citrus tart - and lovely long, sleek finish. Balanced, round and yet v...(read more)

2 plots. One planted in 1970, the other in 2006. 28% new oak. More expressive on the nose than the Pulignys. Fatter and broader but good verticality. Some tropical notes to the fruit and a lovely savoury edge too. This h...(read more)

First plot below Enseignères. More clay, so arguably not your typical Puligny, says Adrien.
Spicy apples and pears, touch of blossom, waxy lemons. Great mineral drive, wet stones. Amazing freshness, very good.

Much more lively than the village wine, opening with an almost electric jolt on the palate - then it broadens out - still limey and salty too, but a good generous feel. Sleek and polished fruit masse drives across the pa...(read more)

Les Chalumaux is up high on the Cote - on the border with Meursault. Wonderful energy again - a light feel - less intense than the Sous Les Puits - but still good fresh drive and crackling citrus zip - which grows. Palat...(read more)

More intensity & concentration here. There's an almost nori-like aroma coming through amongst the stone & white orchard fruits. A touch flinty too. Lovely mouthfeel. Great texture to the fruit. That nori-like sal...(read more)

Pale with green reflections. Like all the wines here there's a frankness - rich and expressive on the entry, bright fruit and mineral lift - lovely balance.

100% new wood (just one 350l barrel). It does show the barrel a bit on the nose, but there's lots of fruit behind, lots of savour and density. Well done. The finish has a little phenolic lift and with the acidity it stay...(read more)
