Tasting notes
Readers who purchased the 2002 Puligny-Montrachet La Truffiere and wish to drink it in the near-term should be advised that it is slightly reductive and in need of air, so decanting is advised. With coaxing, this outstanding wine’s spiced mineral aromas come to the fore. Medium-bodied, broad, and ample, it is a fleshy, rich wine packed with toasted gravel and syrupy minerals. Its expressive, lush, satiny-textured personality lingers throughout its long, detailed finish. Projected maturity: 2007-2013. Importer: Vineyard Brands, Birmingham, AL; tel. (205) 980-8802, and Louis/Dressner Selections, Long Island City, NY; tel. (718) 433-4781
