The 2024 Puligny-Montrachet La Garenne 1er Cru, picked a little later than the Caillerets, has a surprising fiery quality on the nose, something almost uncontained about the aromatics, perhaps just missing a bit of mineralité . The palate is much better with a lovely caressing texture and perfectly pitched acidity. The oak feels very harmonious on the finish. After five minutes, the aromatics do cohere and calm down and it should result in a classy La Garenne.
Mid to full lemon yellow. A generosity of candied white fruit, expanding on the palate, a slightly higher thread of acidity than some, more linear than wide, a little touch of oatmeal. This is a slow burner with quite some potential
About the producer
Louis Jadot is arguably the most consistent négociant house in Burgundy. It has managed to straddle both the entry-level and fine wine market, while retaining respect in both.
