Other Reviews....
There is a hint of phenolic character suffusing the ripe and vaguely exotic aromas of white and yellow fruit, orange peel, fennel and a wonderful array of floral nuances. There is outstanding volume to the solidly concentrated, rich and powerful yet displaying the natural class of a fine Puligny, all wrapped in a mouth coating, moderately dry and sneaky long finale. This could use more depth so plan on at least a few years of keeping. Drink through 2031+.

Mid lemon yellow. Nutty, sunny, still fine, less power. You can tell this needed to be picked at the start, as the acidity though still correct is less evident. The vines are on SO4 rootstock, which encourages early ripening. Rays of sunshine across the palate, and Puligny delicacy. Drink from 2028-2034.
