Tasting notes
The Puligny-Montrachet Les Enseigneres is a sweet white fruit and buttered toast-scented wine that will certainly be excellent. If its medium-to-full-bodied, powerful, focused, and super-ripe core of pears and apples is able to integrate its acidity better it will merit an outstanding rating. Drink it between 2000 and 2005.

Deep spice and oak char on the nose. Intense, bright flavor of pink grapefruit. Spicy but not particularly fat. From another barrel: Fresher aroma of spiced apple. Rich and round, but a bit less complex than the first sample. Impossible to assess with confidence today.
