Note di degustazione
Reticent nose hints at nutmeg, marzipan and vanilla; less fruity than the Garenne. Then suave and bright in the mouth, with peach, citrus and floral flavors complicated by a leesy nuance. Still, this is less open and harmonious today than the Garenne. Nerveux but not particularly austere for this cru in 2002.

The 2002 Puligny-Montrachet Les Referts sports a nose of acacia blossoms and stones. Light to medium-bodied, rich, and masculine, this fleshy, lush, silky-textured effort boasts well-focused flavors of resin-laced minerals. It should be drunk over the next 5-6 years. “I have only good things to say about 2002. It is the fourth in a series of good vintages, starting with the 1999s. There was no rot, great maturity, and excellent balance to add backbone,” said Gerard Boudot, Sauzet’s winemaker. He went on to add, “2002 is a very good vintage. Some people compare it to 1996, but those were much more austere wines. Some people speak of 1992, but it is livelier. Maybe it reminds me of 1985.” Importer: Vineyard Brands, Birmingham, AL; tel.

Scented and rich on the nose. Full throttle for this producer. Quite dense. A- rather than A, but a good effort. (JR)
