Les Champs Gains Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Chardonnay

Meyer lemon, honeyed lemon rind, a bit of sulphur. Layers. Really good.

First bottle was corked, second bottle was “wow” 🤩

Pro tip: age your PYCM

Cool, poised and fresh. Greengage, flint, zesty edges. Great acidity and balance. Quite could and contained right now- maybe needs a bit of time.

Last bottle of this... sad to see her go

2009. Lots of sulphur, as to be expected with this producer, but it's very drinkable after a good decant. Wet slate and lime. Ripping acidity. Handled the ripeness of this vintage very well. I have a banging headache though. Don't know if it's related to the wine.

So good. And with the best company

Laser focused PYCM. Perhaps slightly tight because of it's youth but really delicious. More expressive with warmth and air. Thank you @Greg Haines

A little too plump for me. This is showing the warm vintage...which is a little unusual for this producer.

So, so good. Lengthy and laser like.
