  Super fresh, aromatic and full of tension, this is showing notes of citrus, some nashi pear, also some minerality, white flowers, honeysuckle, lindenblossom, candied ginger, some marine minerality. It's medium-full bodied, with medium-high acidity. Super long finish. A superb Puligny that is in a beautiful place already. Wow.

  Whow! Mittleres Goldgelb, eher dichte Farbe.
  Grossartige Nase, Aromen weisser Blüten, Popcorn, Zitrusfrüchte, leichte Gewürznote, ganz, ganz toll!
  Am Gaumen eine Wucht. Wieder Zitrus, auch Apfel, etwas Ananas, Popcorn, deutliche Vanillenote, ein Feuerwerk!
  Perfekte Balance, grossartige Länge, ein Weltklasse-Weisswein!

  Good showing tonight with white flowers, vanilla oak and spice. It had generous power and grip on the palate. Very nice for its level.

  This is a great wine from Pugny Montracet we visited this wine producer in 2019 during our visit to Bourgogne. The wine is exceptional.
  
  In the glass, this 2017 Puligny Montrachet Clos De La Pucelle Premier Cru presents itself as a glistening golden elixir, hinting at the treasure trove of flavors it holds within.
  
  On the nose, it is an exquisite ballet of aromas. The fragrance of freshly bloomed white flowers dances alongside subtle hints of honeysuckle and acacia, weaving a fragrant tapestry that beckons you closer.
  
  The first sip is a revelation. This wine exhibits a perfect balance between richness and finesse. Layers of ripe orchard fruits, including crisp green apples and juicy pears, intermingle with a delicate touch of lemon zest, creating a harmonious melody on the palate.
  
  Its minerality is the backbone of its elegance, offering a flinty, stony character that reflects the terroir of Puligny Montrachet with finesse. The oak aging is evident but restrained, imparting nuances of toasted hazelnuts and a whisper of vanilla, adding depth without overwhelming the fruit.
  
  The finish is enduring and memorable, with a vibrant acidity that lingers gracefully, leaving a lasting impression of purity and refinement.
  
  Overall, the Puligny Montrachet Clos De La Pucelle Premier Cru 2017 is a testament to the artistry of Burgundian winemaking. It's a wine that captures the essence of its terroir and vintage, offering a remarkable journey through the nuances of Chardonnay. This is a wine that demands attention and appreciation, deserving of a place among the finest Premier Crus of Burgundy. A true gem for any wine enthusiast's collection.PM 98.
