Tasting Notes

Vinous Stephen Tanzer - 01 Sep 09
Very pale color with a green cast. Complex aromas of lime, white peach, white flowers and crushed stone. Then silky, sweet and penetrating, with nicely integrated acidity contributing structure and verve. A linear, firmly built wine that really vibrates on the persistent, aromatic finish. Remy describes this wine as more solid and larger-scaled than the 2004 but with similar acidity and minerality. Classy and classic Puligny.
