Note di degustazione
As it approaches its tenth birthday, the 2008 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Referts is drinking in style, with aromas of almond paste and green apple mingling with notions of citrus oil and fresh pastry in an attractive bouquet. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, glossily textural and incisive, with excellent concentration, a bright line of acidity and a youthfully chalky finish. The fine vintage has lent the sometimes blocky Referts an elegance it doesn't always possess.

Subdued aromas of minerals, spices and white truffle. Quite taut and unforthcoming today in spite of its ripe acidity, attractive sweetness of soft citrus fruit and depth of flavor. Perhaps just a tad more exotic than the Perrieres but with solid underlying minerality. Will this stay as fresh as the Perrieres?
(malo almost finished) Less fruity and more serious on the nose than the Combettes, showing strong mineral and clove notes. Dense, sappy and sweet; this really captures the chewy, tactile side of 2008. I like the combination of minerality and fat. The longest of these 2008s to this point by a wide margin, finishing with lovely sappy persistence and flavor intensity. My score may turn out to be conservative.
