Other Reviews....
The 2014 Puligny Montrachet 1er Cru les Chalumeaux has a very expressive, wet limestone, sea spray and flint-scented bouquet that opens with confidence. The palate is fresh and vibrant on the entry, rounded in the mouth but kept in check by the keen line of acidity. This is very refined and yet voluminous with lingering passion fruit and white peach notes on the sustained aftertaste. Excellent.

Firm reduction renders the nose unreadable. On the plus side there is a beguiling sense of energy to the stony and beautifully delineated and ultra-saline flavors that conclude in a strikingly persistent and solidly complex finale. This isn't quite as refined as the Garenne but this is still very pretty.

Bright yellow. Sexy stone fruits and spices on the very subtle nose, complicated by a note of flint. Very much alive on the palate, with its alluring sweetness nicely brightened by lemon zest acidity. The rising finish conveys excellent intensity and thrust. Still very young.
