This elegant and powerful wine is the result of a blend of two premier crus from the slopes of Puligny-Montrachet, les Chalumeaux and la Garenne. On the nose, fresh almond and white flowers dominate. The round palate, full-bodied with flavors of dried fruits, is enhanced by the elegant minerality of this premier cru.
Vinous
- v90
(50% new oak; half Garenne and half Chalumeaux): Slightly high-toned aromas of very ripe stone fruits and strong nutty, spicy oak, with the wood element coming as a shock after Matrot's other 2015s. Concentrated, penetrating, rich and dry, with the oak element dominating stone fruits and oatmeal in the middle palate. A bit lacking in finesse following the Chalumeaux but long on the finish, which shows a phenolic quality that's accentuated by oak tannins. There's no shortage of acidity here, but this youthfully disjointed wine will need time to find its ultimate balance.
