Burgundy, France
Lives up to the puligny pedigree. A joy to drink and pay for too.

Nose has under-ripe papaya, pineapple core, cut yellow apple, nondescript white florals and dry sandstone.
Palate has ripe pineapple core, lemon zest, light vanilla, pear puff pastry, yellow apple peel with slightly chalky notes to the medium finish. Excellent.
Testing out our new Gabriel Glas stemware tonight; almost like a (tulip) Scotch glass with a stem, really concentrating the aromas and with a wider bowl it's almost self-decanting. This was a great bottle to test them out.
I've mentioned before, never pass up the entry level wines of serious producers, they are great values, as their quality should be spread across the brand. So I'll be happy to drink the Bourgogne of anyone who also happens to make a Bâtard-Montrachet.

Baked apple, pear. Salinity and wet rock. Fuller on the palate with balanced spine of acid and some more restrained pineapple, citrus notes

Ample weight but bright and light on its feet. Sulphuric with yellow apple and wet stone. An excellent start to the night.

Excellent Bourgogne - from mostly Puligny fruit. Subtle herb, chalk, tart apple, and peach pith. Waiting for this to open up

Dec 22nd, 2017Reportedly declassified Puligny-Montrachet from the Meursault border. Lemongrass and pineapple on the nose precede a mouthful of powdered lime peel and wet stones on the lengthy palate. Expressing the warm 2015 vintage with some weight and viscosity. A damn fine Bourgogne that pairs perfectly with broiled trout and fingerlings.
