France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune, Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru
Lovely light, elegant style, good intensity but already open and pleasant, very judicious use of oak, lemon, meaty touch, lovely freshness, touch of salted butter; very good length. Drink young probably.
No 05779. Saturated purple colour; wonderfully rich varietal character, ripe sweet black cherries, spices, slightly farmyardy, still quite primary, very deep; velvety texture, sweet fruit flavours, powerful and concentrated, well-structured but still tight, big flavours; excellent length. Bright future, now - 2030.
Not big, more like a Goldkapsel Auslese, peach, lovely energy, tightly wound, not a lot of botrytis, fabulous 2010-acidity, apples, floral, a bit Eiswein-like even; excellent length. Now - 2035.
