Puligny Perrieres 1er Cru 2015

Next up the Puligny-Montrachet Les Perriéres 2015 from a vineyard located between Clavaillon and Les Referts and offer a more refined and balanced side of the Puligny appellation in 2015. The nose is fresh with a fine filigree minerality and a lovely citrus infused fruit. On the palate refined and offering more energy and freshness then the Champ Canet – it’s still both long and intense but it has a more effortless and refined expression. Fine++ The style of Pernot-Belicard goes well with the 2015 vintage as the citrus (grape/lime) notes is working very well with the rich fruit – sort of offering a spicy freshness to balance the rich fruit. On the top of this – this Puligny minerality is also a nice match for rich vintages. Without more talk … Philippe Pernot has done tremendously well in 2015 …

Score: 92 - 93
