2023, Domaine Pernot Belicard, PULIGNY-MONTRACHET, 'Composition Parcellaire'Assemblage from across the village. 35 80 old vines. 20% new oak. Vines on the Chassagne and Meursault sides bookend multiple parcels closer to the village a view of the breadth of Puligny here. Here we have an inviting floral perfume. Expansive, a little more structured in architecture. Less mineral [than the Meursault] but more intense with a juicy citrus finishing character. Bill Nanson, Burgundy Report. 7 plots. Mixed ages, mixed locations, mixed

The new Fiesole fruit makes up about 30% to 35% of this wine

100/100 Robert Parker

missing some charm and fruit density

93/100 Jane Anson

vibrant and lively

dark spice and roasted sesame oak

fleshy and charming with both a tense and fresh finish

It will be interesting to see where this goes

The harmonious palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins and lightly spiced red fruit

with the austerity of limestone on full display

the austerity isn't aggressive

There is a rewarding elegance here that indicates the wine should age gracefully
