The 2015 Puligny Montrachet Village is instantly more expressive on the nose compared to the Chassagne-Montrachet with bright Granny Smith apples, cold limestone and even a surprising hint of Turkish Delight adding a soupçon of exoticism. The palate is very well balanced with an attractive sense of airiness. This is very well defined with a tangy touch of ginger towards the saline finish that lingers long on the aftertaste. Like the Santenay Blanc, this is a village cru punching well above its weight and as a result, it comes highly recommended.

(aged in 25% new oak, "but it's done in 350-liter barrels so it's actually less than that," notes Marc Bachelet): Medium yellow. Ripe apricot and butter aromas lifted by spices. Then juicy and classically dry in the mouth; tighter and more concentrated than the village Chassagne. Shows more salinity and length too. The crop level was a healthy 50 hectoliters per hectare as these vines did not suffer from drought. Score: 89 - 91 Stephen Tanzer, Vinous.com 01 September 2016 |
