Note di degustazione
The fabulous Puligny-Montrachet Les Referts offers earth and mineral aromas as well as a powerful, deeply rich, complex, and medium-to-full-bodied personality. Highly-defined and pure, this wine also has loads of fat (gras as the French would say) to satisfy a taster's hedonistic cravings. Layers of gravel, pears, anise, and sweet oak are found in this well-crafted gem. I suggest drinking it between 2001 and 2006. Gerard Boudot, this firm's director, bottled this wine between September and November, 1997. Importer: Vineyard Brands, Birmingham, AL; tel (205) 980-8802.

Brooding nose hints at citrus oil and oak spice. Sweeter, denser and more intensely flavored than the above; this is positively creamy but also shows the sharp definition of the better '96s. Really strong material here. Very persistent, bright, limey aftertaste.
