Tasting notes
The 2017 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Perrières offers up a beautiful bouquet of ripe citrus fruit, acacia honey, crushed chalk and praline. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, satiny and layered, with lovely concentration and a sense of completeness, concluding with a vibrant, saline finish.

Pale yellow. Restrained aromas of white peach flesh and wild herbs, plus a rocky nuance. More concentrated and savory than the village example, with a touch of floral sweetness supported by saline mineral energy. Most impressive today on the bracing, rising, stony finish, where the calcaire soil already shines through. Very promising.
