This producer is killing it right now. The 15 puligny garenne was ultra fresh and focused with laser like acidity but loads and loads of clean Chardonnay fruit. For around $100 I cannot picture many better white burgs. This is a special bottling for sure. The Meursault Boulanger is also to die for

My buddy @Nathaniel DiMaggio turned me onto this producer. The 15s are lights out. Not from an exceptional vineyard but definitely 1er cru in name and quality. Essential oil on the nose with lemon, quince and super green lime. Acacia flowers as well. Textured but not rich. Mineral but not angular. Just really really nice and worth seeking out

Ripe round fruits and decent acid. Starting to form some secondary fruit notes. Seems like malo but not too much oak. Perhaps a tad reductive, some mineral. Interesting but not enough acid for my taste.
