2020 Domaine Dujac Puligny-Montrachet Les Combettes Premier Cru

Other Reviews....
A slightly riper nose is at once less floral but offers more citrus elements to the discreetly spiced white fleshed fruit scents. I very much like the texture of the rich yet quite delicate flavors where the abundant sap coating the palate on the strikingly long finale. This is a really lovely effort and very Combettes in character that should also amply reward a decade plus of keeping. Drink through 2030+.

The 2020 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Combettes is richer and more layered, revealing aromas of pear, orange oil, baking spices, white flowers and honey, followed by a medium to full-bodied, lively and nicely concentrated palate, concluding with a saline finish.

The 2020 Puligny-Montrachet Les Combettes 1er Cru has a slightly creamy, frangipane-tinged bouquet. It's well-defined, though perhaps it needs a little more terroir and mineralité to come through. The 2020 becomes quite feisty with aeration. The palate is well-balanced with a slightly tangy entry, fresh and vibrant with a killer line of acidity. Citrus-fresh towards the finish with just a touch of blood orange, it reveals a very sustained aftertaste matched with a salinity that beckons another sip. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting. Drink 2025-2048.

From 80 year old vines, small berries and bunches, low yields. Pale primrose. Here the nose is much more expressive, The balance between fruit and flesh is beautifully judged, with a little more weight of yellow fruit at the back. Attractive balance with light acidity to finish. Drink from 2024-2030.

60-year-old vines deliver plenty of richness, but there is also a very fresh side here, with a lemony fruit, a mineral edge and a hint of smoke - very 'Puligny'. The texture recalls the density of a Meursault with the crisp nature of a typical Puligny and it's a charming balance. Dujac farms a parcel of 0.62ha in Puligny Combettes near the border with Meursault. The grapes are lightly crushed and fermented in cask (20% new), where it will stay for 16 months (with a further six in tank). Drink 2025 - 2040.
