Note di degustazione
Pale medium yellow. Subdued but pure aromas of peach, lemon, flowers and spicy oak. Soft, rich and fresh, with less exotic flavors and less obvious alcohol than the foregoing samples. This finishes with excellent length.

Bursting forth with spicy yellow plums, apricots, and pears, the 2003 Puligny-Montrachet Combettes (white) is a delightfully soft, deep, rich medium-bodied wine. Its beguiling candied apple, sweet mineral, and spiced pear flavors are fleshy, expressive, and prolonged throughout its suave finish. Anticipated maturity: now-2012. Importer: Wilson-Daniels, St. Helena, CA; tel. (707) 963-9661
Pale green-tinged yellow. Subtle nose combines peach, yellow plum, lime, spices and minerals. Ripe, rich and spicy, with orchard fruit and floral notes. But doesn't show this cuvee's usual fat or roundness today (to be fair, all of these wines are slightly dried by SO2, as well as the gas that's being retained to preserve freshness). Seems to be masking its power today. Best today on the whiplash of a finish, where there's a hint of licorice.
