Pure Chardonnay blueprint from Puligny's premier vineyard sites.
Crystalline pear and white peach leap from the glass. Classic Puligny minerality cuts through like flint struck steel. Oak whispers, never shouts. Mid-palate shows remarkable density without weight. Apple blossom finish stretches endlessly. This 2017 captures everything great about the vintage - ripe fruit balanced by driving acidity. Drinking beautifully now but will reward patience through 2030.
