Score 93/100 · Drink 2002-2007, Pierre Rovani, Feb 1998

The Puligny-Montrachet Les Champs-Canet possesses an intense, deeply rich, broad, and white peach-scented nose. Its displays a lace-like, elegant, and highly-defined, yet expansive and powerful medium-to-full-bodied character. Leesy notes, together with minerals, pears, and sweet oak are found in this exciting and seductive wine. I suggest drinking it between 2002 and 2007. This wine had been bottled one week prior to my visit, having spent 14 months on its lees. Importer: Vineyard Brands, Birmingham, AL; tel (205) 980-8802.

Score 92+/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous

Fresh pear, white peach and spice aromas of noteworthy purity. Fat, full and concentrated, with strong framing acidity. Much more minerally than the '97 version of this wine. Very long, strong back end. Impressive material here for aging. This finished with a relatively high 2.2 grams/liter residual sugar.
