Score 88/100 · Drink 2018-2025, Neal Martin, Nov 2018
The 2015 Puligny-Montrachet Les Combettes 1er Cru has a rather oak-driven bouquet that lacks the terroir expression and personality of its peers. The palate is sappy and lightly spiced on the entry, although the oak impinges and dries the finish. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting.

(a mix of 23- and 40-year-old vines, picked second after the Puligny-Montrachet Les Perrières on September 2): Sexy ginger aroma, with very ripe stone fruits in the background. Dry, rich and solid; not as nuanced and perfumed in the mouth as the Folatières but this is more powerful. Lower-pitched than the Folatières, finishing long and a bit youthfully aggressive, with a saline quality.
