justerini & brooks tasting note

A truly complex combination of fruit and stones, built around a gorgeous texture with fruit that ranges from fine salty peaches to Mediterranean fruits to juicy white conference pears. A totally seductive Champs Canet with freshness but no angles or firmness and no shortage of bite, intensity or energy. A great Puligny vineyard situated mid-slope, above Combettes and next door to Meursault Perrières, planted on a well-balanced mix of clay and limestone soils. The vines average 50 years old.

The 2022 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Champ Canet is excellent, mingling aromas of lemon oil, citrus confit, white flowers, freshly baked bread and mandarin, followed by a medium to full-bodied, satiny and seamless palate that's concentrated and structured, concluding with a long, nutmeg-inflected finish.

The 2022 Puligny-Montrachet Champ Canet 1er Cru felt much more closed when I tasted it at the Domaine, introverted with dewy meadow scents. The palate is well-balanced, but it doesn't quite convey the mineralité and tension of its fellow Premier Crus at the moment. Does it have more to give? I remain cautious for now.
