2022 Carillon, Jacques Puligny Montrachet 1er Les Perrieres

This is aromatically similar to the Champ Canet though with even greater abundance of floral elements. 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.  Burghound 90-93 Outstanding!

Slightly paler colour and much more closed on the nose. It is on the palate that the volume of fruit begins to show itself, good acidity, more weight, less charm, but building well to the back of the palate. The Perrières perhaps narrowly has the edge over the attractive Champ Canet. Drink from 2029-2035. Tasted: October 2023.  Jasper Morris 92-95

Tension returns to the range with the 2022 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Perrières, a medium to full-bodied, satiny and succulent white redolent of white flowers, orange blossom, ripe citrus fruit and buttered toast.  William Kelley 90-92
