Note di degustazione
The 2019 Puligny-Montrachet Les Pucelles 1er Cru has a concentrated nose delineated by hints of pressed white flowers, Vervain tea and crushed stone, with just a bit of reduction. These aromatics are backward at this stage, but they show great potential. The palate is quite sharp on the entry, with a twist of sour lemon that counterbalances the concentrated, slightly honeyed fruit. There is a pleasant build in the mouth, and it unveils hidden salinity and spiciness toward the finish. The longer you remain in its presence, the more it gives you. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.

Finer boned and less concentrated than the extraordinary Combettes, the 2019 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Pucelles offers up aromas of peach, orange zest, white flowers, freshly baked bread and hazelnuts. Medium to full-bodied, saline and chiseled, this might just be a little shy after bottling, but on first encounter, it doesn't dominate Leflaive's range of premiers crus to the extent that it usually does.
The 2019 Puligny-Montrachet Les Pucelles 1er Cru is more timid on the nose following on from the Les Combettes and this needed more encouragement from the glass. Cold stone, granite and flint aromas are the order of the day, very well defined and precise. The palate is very concentrated with a lot of grip, the volume of this Les Pucelles towards the finish, energetic and very persistent in the mouth. This is another electrifying Puligny ‘19 from Leflaive. Closure: Diam 30
