(just a single 350-liter barrel from fruit on the Puligny side of the appellation, as the vines in Chassagne were 100% frosted): Brooding, deep aromas of fresh apricot, pineapple, spices and iodine lifted by a lemony note. Dense, thick and powerfully concentrated but with a fine-grained texture to its stone fruit and crushed rock flavors; not hugely expressive today--in fact, a bit unformed. Finishes dusty, vibrant and very long. Perhaps the longest of these young 2016s but also surprisingly subtle in the way it unwinds on the finish. Rating: 93-95 Stephen Tanzer, www.vinousmedia.com (Sept 2017)
