2015 Puligny Montrachet Les Enseigneres

Broader on the nose than the village Meursault bottlings, offering scents of orange oil, peach, spices, minerals and oak char, plus a whiff of unabsorbed SO2. Dense, fat and concentrated; creamier than the Meursault from Narvaux but not heavy. This wine, too, conveys an impression of power. Finishes classically dry, strong and long, spreading out and vibrating on the back end.

Pale, bright yellow. Sexy scents of white peach, hazelnut and spices, with a touch of youthful reduction. A spicy, nicely concentrated but rather unforthcoming midweight, a bit blocked by reduction but enlivened by adequate acidity. Showed more floral lift in the middle palate with aeration. Finishes dry and firm but smooth, in need of another year in the cellar.
