Tasting Notes

A very pretty, airy and cool nose is slightly riper than its 2021 counterpart while reflecting notes of green apple, citrus confit and floral wisps. The vibrant and beautifully detailed middleweight flavors are not super dense but do offer very fine depth and persistence. Note that this lovely Puligny villages could be enjoyed young or cellared for a few years first.

Allen Meadows, Burghound.com (91), June 2023

The 2020 Puligny-Montrachet Village has turned out nicely, offering up aromas of citrus zest, peach, pastry cream and struck match, followed by a medium to full-bodied, ample and satiny palate underpinned by racy acids. It's very close to the level of the 2017 vintage in quality.
