Tasting notes
The 2023 Puligny-Montrachet Clos du Cailleret 1er Cru has more precision and mineralité compared to the Clos de la Pucelle at this stage. It's vibrant and poised, with real drive and energy. The palate is concentrated and lightly spiced, with a keen line of acidity and plenty of energy and penetration on the finish. This represents an outstanding contribution to the vintage. I suspect it will land at the top of my banded score.

One of the paler colours with an intense but unforthcoming nose. A concentrated raft of white fruit through the middle, then a more electric mineral finish. There is both more flesh and a little more wood showing, compared to Pucelles. Fine length.
A wine of great intensity and concentration, offering aromas of grapefruit and passionfruit with suggestions of acacia flowers and spice. The texture shows impressive density, but the crisp acidity ensures that this stays lively and dynamic on the palate. The grapes are from the hectare the Chartron family owns here; they were lightly crushed and gently pressed before fermentation in cask (30% new). This will open more in five to seven years and should drink well for at least another 30.
