Tasting Notes

Boillot typically begins the harvest with this parcel, and the 2017 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Combettes was no exception. The wine is superb, unfurling in the glass with notes of mandarin oil, white flowers, ripe yellow orchard fruits, honeycomb and toasted hazelnuts. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, reserved ad tight-knit, with lots of old vine concentration and dry extract, concluding with a long, mouthwatering finish.

Score: 92 - 94

Bright, light yellow. Riper aromas of yellow peach and hazelnut, with some noble herb nuances emerging with air; Boillot harvested this fruit early at 12.8% potential alcohol and chaptalized to 13.3%. Fat and smooth on the palate, with its lovely sweetness buffered by mineral energy. Finishes saline, broad and dry.

Score: 91 - 94
