Every time I open a 2010 Jamet I ask myself two questions:
How far will it still develop (improved every single time) but
why did I not wait longer....?
Extraordinary dark color. Muscular. Starts to get silky tannins.
Recommendation of the Sommelier of a 3 star restaurant.

A wine I’ve had the pleasure of drinking through the years. 2017 is young but rich. Characteristic honey lemon color, and nose! Balanced for such a young wine. Soft full mouth, the wine lingers. It needs more time to let the acids melt a bit more, but wonderful to drink now.

Two 2016 Henri Boillot Pulignys drunk side-by-side at home: Slightly deeper, brighter gold than the Pucelles. A nose of grapefruit, orange, peach, pineapple and touches of gooseberry and the trademark honeycomb. Some nascent white floral perfumes. On palate, noticeably more weight, concentration and power than the Pucelles. Deeper, creamier and richer, but also drier and more mineral than the Pucelles. Also lemon meringue pie, pear, nectarine, blanched hazelnut and hints of apricot and honey. Alcohol well aligned (13.5% ABV). Grand Cru quality white Burgundy. Very long, finishing dry and mineral. A little more closed than the Pucelles. Drink 2025 - 2035. Superb. 94+.

Upon opening, rather harsh tannins. Five hours later: Lots of volume, slightly heavy even. Fair complexity, with the tannins still lurking behind. Fairly long. Beautiful, persistent fruit. Enough freshness. Still, I miss a "je ne sais quoi". P.S.: Bought as a future and perfectly stored. P.P.S.: Now, I know what I miss: Excitement.
