Description

Normally a blend from 75% of generic fruit from Meursault and 25% in Puligny, but the Meursault vines suffered much more from the frost, so this year the percentages are reversed. The result is a wine leaning much more towards the spicy gunflint style of Puligny. The wine is admirably correct, with well-delineated refreshing lines, and a commendable density on the finish.

Critics reviews

Jasper Morris MW 86-87/100
This cuvée should be 60/40 Meursault side but was in fact 75/25 Puligny side this year. Racked from barrel early August. Mid lemon colour, softly grapey. Quite ripe aromatics. A slight sucrosity on the palate then a little tension to finish.Drink 2024 - 2026Jasper Morris, insideburgundy_com (January 2023)
