From the Puligny side of the appellation. Clear beautiful yellow colour. The nose is discreet but very classy, then this huge wealth of fruit expands across the palate. We can wait for the nose. This is beautifully poised, a little wood, a slight youthful bitterness, but both add to the grip. Long and fine.

Jadot buys these grapes, and Frédéric Barnier said they finished the pruning the week before the devasting frosts dipping as low as – 8°C... in tee-shirts. There is a lovely generosity to this wine in its sensuous, glossy and dense palate enrobed by finely delineated acidity. The lingering, toasted spice finish meshes seamlessly with sweetly ripe orchards fruits.
