I really enjoyed this, ready to drink but will develop over a few years. Good fruit, waxy lemons and a hint of lime, some toffee and butter, perhaps just slightly less acidity than I would like. Fruit driven and good fun.

(Mischief & Mayhem Puligny-Montrachet) Just a little deeper yellow. Wide, fruit driven nose - still some brioche but of a lower order than the Carillon, a little toffee too. Similar pear-fruit but just a little fatter texture. Good texture and a more creamy fruit driven experience in the mid-palate. The finish is very good, but it would be easy to miss the reprise it brings to another level. Less structured and today more ‘comely’.
(Mischief & Mayhem Puligny-Montrachet) Bottled in February. Medium-pale yellow. A little more depth and a creamy note on the nose. Again a good acid profile and a lovely burst of interest in the mid-palate. The lenght is savoury then without warning there is a creamy burst of flavour that is reminiscent of a fine 1er cru. This is a very fine villages that performs well above the label - it also gives no hint to it's 14%.
