Note di degustazione
Peach, acacia flower and a hint of honey on the nose. Dense and bright in the mouth, with peach and citrus flavors shaped by a steely mineral spine. Precise, concentrated, balanced and quite long. Conveys an impression of solidity. A superb showing for this wine. Boudot believes it will age for two decades.

White peaches can be discerned in the nose of the 2002 Puligny-Montrachet La Garenne. Light to medium-bodied, satiny-textured, and broad, it offers flavors of tangy pears and apples in its harmonious character. It should be drunk over the next 4 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.

High-pitched, perfumed aromas of flowers and minerals. Juicy and bright in the mouth, at once delicate and intense. All flowers and minerals. A penetrating, precise wine with sweetness and finesse.
