2015 - 2027justerini & brooks tasting note
Intense and tight-wound but so fine, real Puligny class and elegance; taut but rich flavours of citrus, lemon rind, butter and stone, the most complex villages the Bachelet brothers have made. From a fine villages plot on a slope called ‘les Meix’, near the Grands Crus, next to Enseigneurs.
critic reviews
91/100Stephen Tanzer,Vinous
Bright lemon-yellow color. Lemon and mineral aromas convey a light touch. Silky, suave and fully ripe; a bit sweeter than the village Chassagne but still quite classic. Best today on the building back half, where salty mineral and menthol flavors stain the palate and linger impressively. Marc Bachelet noted that he and his brother Alexandre made and aged their 2014s and 2015s in virtually identical fashion.
