The colour is lemon and pale, quite limpid. The nose is quite forward yet with restraint and showing nuances of ripe white stone fruits, citrus and fine minerality. The palate extends these ripe flavours, showing a complex, rounded and full bodied core of ripe citrus and tropical fruits with a controlled, restrained and elegant oak veneer. A touch of cashew balances against the peach, nectarine and honeyed quality of fruit, but overall, the sensation is of a lean, tight and austere, yet powerful Puligny, that will expand greatly with age.
