Note di degustazione
The 2023 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Pucelles has turned out beautifully, unfurling to reveal aromas of peach, orange blossom, toasted nuts and iodine. Full-bodied, ample and textural, it's fleshy and layered, with a seamless, enveloping profile girdled by bright acids. It will offer a broad drinking window.

The 2024 Puligny-Montrachet Les Pucelles 1er Cru, which Brice de la Morandière quipped was a "Grand Cru" (well, he does have grounds), has a succinct bouquet with lime, citrus peel and light flinty aromas that gradually unfurl in the glass. The palate is well balanced, cut from a similar cloth to the Les Combettes but with a slightly creamier texture. Perhaps it does not quite have the same "electricity" as the latter. This is long in the mouth, but juxtaposing the two cuvées I might err towards the Les Combettes.
