Transparent, ethereal, very nervy. This could be really entertaining in a couple of years because all the elements are there but it certainly needs time to integrate. Very tart finish at the moment so I don’t feel it’s a dead cert for future pleasure. (JR)

Slightly reduced nose offers cool aromas of lime, pear, wet stone and menthol. Supple and moderately intense, with a slight tartness to the lime and spice flavors but more texture than the Caillerets. Finishes reasonably persistent and quite dry. (A sample of Puligny-Montrachet Les Referts was somewhat tart, and lacked the purity of the Mollards' own wines from Chassagne-Montrachet, offering 84-86 potential.)
