Not sure why this was so different than the other bottle...but definitely not complaining! Amazing focus, lift, purity and cut. High acid without sacrificing any mouthfeel...great balance. Lots of citrus and minerality on the palate with a touch of fresh hay on the nose. Power and finesse. Delicious!!

Solid white burgundy. Well balanced for its youth. Rounder and richer than most Puligny Montrachets (although admittedly haven't had many La Garennes), but still pretty and delicious. A little more acidity would have helped.

Initially not very expressive nose but opened up after 30 mins to reveal a buttery characteristic chardony nose. A little tiney bit disappointing on the palate but again opened up.

there appears to be a dumb phase for some top white Burgundies. So probably best to say I would now leave this for at least 2 more years

Not showing well as yet. Needs more time. Nose is pretty much shut down. Lemon, citrusy with good mineral cut. Medium length finish.
