Tasting notes
Aromatic nose of white flowers, green apple, lime and alpine scents. The palate is chalky in texture with minerals, lime and nectarine. Lovely freshness and delicacy.Dec 2015

(bottled in late April): Musky aromas of lime and quinine reminded me of an Alsace Riesling. Then surprisingly creamy and pliant in the mouth, with peach and citrus flavors spreading out to saturate the palate. Very seamless, silky wine: Lamy notes that the clay soil gives it roundness and fullness. Tightens up on the finish but not at all hard.
Distinctly greenish straw. Crystal clear. Some sweetness of fruit and creaminess on the nose but, unusually, struck match on the finish. Lots tucked in here. Textbook stuff. (JR)
The 2014 Puligny Montrachet les Tremblots has quite an arresting bouquet in the offering, with gorgeous peach skin and nectarine scents that are extremely well defined. The palate is very well balanced with crisp acidity, very saline in the mouth with just a hint of bitter lemon. I like the energy and precision here, a complex Puligny that has the potential to be "a little gem" once in bottle.
