Other Reviews....
Firm reduction renders the nose impossible to accurately assess. More interesting are the finer and more elegant though less concentrated middle weight flavors exude a subtle stoniness on the lingering and almost delicate finale. This sleek effort is already quite harmonious and a wine that should drink well both young and with up to a decade of bottle age. Drink through 2028+.

Allen Meadows - Burghound

The 2020 Puligny-Montrachet La Combette 1er Cru has a wonderful, tensile, energetic bouquet with even more mineralité than the excellent Chalumaux. The palate is very well balanced with lemon rind, orange pith and mandarin, good extract and density towards the finish with quite a spicy, stem ginger and lemongrass tinged finish that lingers in the mouth. Superb. Drink 2024-2042.

Neal Martin - Vinous

Still in barrel, unracked. Lemon and lime, a mild reduction gives some grip to the nose in the way that the Charmes does not. This has a wonderful volume of fruit in the mouth, fills out the back of the palate and good acidity. Fair to long finish.
