2021 Domaine Bachelet-Monnot Puligny-Montrachet Les Referts Premier Cru
Other Reviews....
Pungent aromas of oak toast, reduction and lemon zest precede the finer and beautifully textured medium-bodied flavors that possess first-rate mid-palate density as they coat the mouth with sappy dry extract while displaying lovely balance, on the classy, clean, crisp and well-balanced finale. Excellent. Drink through 2029+.

The 2021 Puligny-Montrachet Les Referts 1er Cru sports a very subtle reduction on the nose and fine intensity, though I feel this will require some bottle age to really open up. The palate is medium-bodied with good grip, fine substance here, lovely acidity with fresh green apple, pear and lime towards the finish. An appealingly bitter aftertaste urges you back for another sip. Classy. Drink 2024-2045.

Neal Martin - Vinous
Mid lemon yellow. More bacon fat than fruit on the nose, reasonably concentrated white fruit on the palate with an agreeable lift at the finish, ripe limes infiltrating white fruit, and persistent. Really impressive aftertaste, in fact. 3 x 350 litre barrels made in the end. Drink from 2025-2031.
