This is not Puligny but Bourgogne from vines abutting Puligny. The winemaker, Alix Montille is apparently married to Jean-Marc Roulot. From 30+ year old vines, hand harvested and naturally fermented. Aged for a year in a mixture of 600L and 224L barrels, less than 10% of which are new. Apricot, pear and peach, with fresh saline notes and exotic floral qualities. Rich, round and yet impeccably balanced, with a taut backbone and elegant, long finish. Very Puligny in character, with a touch less density, but just as much persistence and length. Drinking gloriously right now. (note by Ian Halbert). Absurd value for white Burgundy at $28. My inventory says I have 2 left. I hope that is correct!

Solid BB with some age. Green apple and nectarine, with a hint of parsnip and wet rocks in the background.

Bracing acidity, but some fullness,minerality. Good value.
