Note di degustazione
The 2017 Puligny-Montrachet Les Folatières 1er Cru has a light, airy bouquet of fresh alpine scents and Granny Smith apples intermingling with wet limestone, plus a hint of tangerine peel. The palate is medium-bodied with good concentration, although it does not quite deliver the delineation of the finest Folatières. Hints of green apple, white peach and lemon and spicy veins of lemongrass enliven the finish, which delivers good length even if there is a little softness. I am not fully convinced about the long-term prospects of this Folatières. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting in Savigny-lès-Beaune.

The 2017 Puligny-Montrachet Les Folatières 1er Cru matures in just over 20% new oak, has an attractive bouquet, a little more complex than the Chalumaux with orange pith and Mirabelle aromas. The palate is well balanced with a slightly soft entry, but there is a fine line of acidity that tightens everything up, leading to a stony, malic finish that lingers in the mouth. Good potential here.
An elegant, understated wine, the 2017 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Folatières offers up notes of ripe Meyer lemon, citrus blossom and almond paste that are delicately framed by new oak. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, satiny and pure, with a delicate, deceptively open-knit profile. I suspect it will tense up with a second winter on the lees.
