Tasting notes
The 2017 Puligny-Montrachet Village has a steely yet airy bouquet that does not quite entrance like the excellent Chassagne-Montrachet this year. But it is still very well defined, and it gains intensity with aeration. The palate is concentrated with a light honeyed note on the entry, veins of marmalade and quince betraying the slight grillé in the vineyard this year. A lovely Puligny that will be difficult to resist in its youth.

Quite a lot of floral fragrance and lovely white fruit too. Strong saline stony character on the finish – very concentrated and lengthy, with archetypical nervy acidity. (RH)
Aromas of ripe citrus fruit, vanilla pod and white flowers introduce the 2017 Puligny-Montrachet Village, a medium to full-bodied, elegantly textural wine that's fine-boned and elegant, with good tension, succulent acids and a giving profile, concluding with a long, pure finish.
