2020 Jacques Prieur, Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru, Les Combettes 1x75cl

Burghound – 92-94

(Sweet spot Outstanding) Here too the wood treatment is admirably discreet with its combination of markedly floral aromas that include carnation, acacia and lilac along with touch of spice white fleshed fruit. The wonderfully elegant, indeed almost delicate, middle weight flavors possess excellent punch and volume that carries over to the lightly mineral-suffused finish. This is lovely and I particularly like the balance which should permit it to age gracefully while adding depth. [10/06/2022]
