Score 91/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, Sep 2004

Inviting yellow color. Expressive aromas of nut oil, clove and smoky, charry oak. Sweet, concentrated and fruit-driven; tactile yet very smooth. Showing well already: this will give early pleasure.

Score 89-91/100 · Drink 2004-2012, Pierre Rovani, Feb 2004

Produced from Girardin’s newly acquired 1.4-hectare parcel, the 2002 Puligny-Montrachet Les Folatieres is medium-bodied and floral-scented. Fresh, pure, and armed with outstanding intensity, this lush pear, apple, and talcum powder-flavored wine is focused, delineated, and softly textured. Drink it over the next 7-8 years. Importer: Vineyard Brands, Birmingham, AL; tel. (205) 980-8802. In addition, Vincent Girardin sells many of these same wines under the Baron de la Charriere label to European Cellars, Eric Solomon, New York, NY; tel. (212) 924-4949

Lovely mineral notes, from a plot close to Chevalier-Montrachet. Exciting nerve and combination of fruit and acidity. Still some astringence. Will be a very, very pleasing wine. Very, very long. (JR)
