Very clear botrytis on the nose here. I remember one note from release mentioning this (Coates) but it was still a big surprise. Lots of other aspects of it seem classic and there is certainly plenty of wine here -concentrated with excellent structure - but botrytised Puligny??! Once I'd got used to that it was rather good, but rather a lot of cognitive dissonance at first...

During a VSR 1er Cru tasting. We stated off with this wine and boy, this good. All the great elements of a fresh burg with lemon curd, crunch corn, gun flint. Complex and long. A clear buy, especially at this price. Kudos to the Pernot team.

nose of lanolin, honey, beeswax, pineapple, and fresh white flowers. very juicy and lively acidity, marked with tropical fruit, apple, and a very light bit of toast. very delicious, would say still on the upswing from here.

Popped and poured. Incredible concentration on the nose. This is a young wine, but offers quite a bit now, with great concentration/extract in the mouth, great balance and a long finish. Will be fun to follow over the next decade+ if no oxidation issues.

This is very young. Lots and lots of wine there, but both oak and sulphur could do with a bit of time to settle down. Great great concentration and acidity, and I expect a complex nuttiness will gradually develop.

Fine Vines - New Burgundy Releases with Guest Jeanne Marie de Champs (Knightsbridge - Northbrook IL): Incredibly floral start with citrus aroma accompanied by interesting fennel and pepper. Concentrated and powerful and rich fruit also with a perfumed character, then great energy providing lift from middle to finish.
