Tasting notes
Coming from three separate parcels in the vineyard, Pucelles is a real highlight of the line-up in 2022. The wine combines a stony minerality with limey intensity and riper mango. Much more generous than the Folatières, and giving at this youthful stage, there’s real depth to the wine with density and dry extract complemented by vibrant acidity. Delicious.

Pale lime and lemon. More electric on the nose with a slight citrus too. Clean white fruit at the front of the palate, more power behind, a good example but not quite the precision of the finest. The finish continues well and shows a riper countenance.
