Pierre Yves Colin Morey, Puligny Montrachet Folatieres

Pierre Yves Colin Morey, Puligny Montrachet Folatieres(from 75+ year old vines). An intensely floral nose also reveals notes of Granny Smith apples, citrus zest and mineral reduction. There is good richness and ripeness to the naturally sweet medium bodied flavors that exude a fine minerality on the extract rich, mouth coating and wonderfully complex finish. I very much like the balance and delineation to the lemony finale. Good stuff though note that once again patience will be required. (90 93) 2019+

roast coffee and mocha

intensity and focused power on the refined

violets and pencil shavings

the 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon Mount Veeder slowly unfurls to reveal blackcurrant cordial

with additional purity and focus

the 2008 is quite a bit less tannic than some recent vintages have been

Like the Montée de Tonnerre this is an excellent 2015 1er and worth considering – plus it should age well

This is potentially a monument in the making if it can continue to add depth as it ages and the potential to do so certainly appears to be present

Billecart-Salmon's newly released 2006 Brut Le Clos Saint-Hilaire is showing well

with hints of rose

This has a resplendent cherry and raspberry nose

but not a great vintage for Celestins
