  (de Montille Puligny-Montrachet Caillerets) (Magnum) The nose is very mineral - the only white in the 1997 line-up that showed this. Tons of dimension on the palate that is is magnified by the citrus acidity. Very long and showing lovely balance. Vintage independant - very, very good

  (de Montille (Hubert) Puligny-Montrachet Le Caillerets) A medium gold colour. The nose gathers depth with time, with well integrated oak, faint petrolly notes and agrumes. Good acidity and a mildly oaky palate that is concentrated but very tight and initially a little flat in the mid-palate - certainly would benefit from another 2 or 3 years wait, the mid-palate really fills out with aeration. Super length that sneaks up on you. For drinking today there's more fun to be found from J-M Boillots village Puligny, but for the long term, this is the wine I'd really like to have in my cellar.
