Puligny Montrachet Perrières, Jacques Carillon 2022

This is aromatically similar to the Champ Canet though with even greater abundance of floral elements plus a background touch of petrol character. The rich and concentrated medium weight flavors exude a bracing salinity on the beautifully detailed, chalky and sappy yet quite linear and youthfully austere finish. As is often the case, this will need at least a few years to unwind and flesh out.

Pale colour, less reductive than Champ Canet, fuller and fleshier in the nose, all in orchard fruit. Very attractive, with a generosity across the palate that has a perfect sense of balance. A fine, complete Perrières, with just the right touch of mineral behind.
