Razor-sharp village Puligny bristling with chalk dust and electric tension.
Coiled energy in glass. Lemon zest and wet limestone leap forward. Mouth floods with chalky minerals, briny finish lingers endlessly. Zero fat, all nerve. This 2016 cuts like a blade through Burgundy's richer style. Drink now for pristine clarity or cellar five years for deeper complexity.

🍷 You crave Burgundy that whispers rather than shouts and worship at minerality's altar.
Pairs with: Raw oysters, Goat cheese soufflé, Grilled sole with herbs, Escargot in garlic butter
