Puligny-Montrachet, Les Perrières, 1er Cru, 2024
justerini & brooks tasting note
Fleshier than Sous le Puits but just as salty and intense below. This is poised and calm, with a steely core buffered by softly spoken cool white fruits. Salinity defines the finish. Absolutely spot on.

The 2024 Puligny-Montrachet Les Perrières 1er Cru is relatively closed on the nose, more obdurate and minimalist, though with aeration there are touches of cold stone/Alpine stream that you can eke out. The palate is fresh on the entry. Real weight here but it needs a little more tension and mineralité to lift the finish. Maybe that will develop once in bottle? At the moment I just prefer the Hameau de Blagny.
