Very ripe stone fruits and a note of sexy smoky oak on the nose. Thick and rich on the palate; almost oily in texture compared to the Folatières, with flavors of vineyard peach, melon and smoky oak dominating. Not as complex as the Folatières, and in a distinctly weightier style.

The 2014 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Pucelles has a strict, stony, slightly smoky bouquet that is very correct. The palate is taut and fresh, primal and well balanced, with hints of mandarin and pear towards the finish. There is precision and poise here, though it is just a little coy compared to the Folatières at the moment.
