Jean-Louis Chavy Puligny Montrachet Perrieres Premier Cru 2018

Alongside Clavaillon, Les Perrieres vineyard altitude is lower than Montrachet with a more southerly aspect. This example comes from a 0.146 plot planted in 1986. Wines are generally fuller bodied, unctuous and generous. The soil is rich but not overly so – limestone, marl, streaks of iron oxide and rocks of various sizes, and is very similar to Montrachet. Full bodied, showing the exuberance and power of the vintage. White flowers, stone fruit, lime and spicy oak. The most overt wine from the range, wonderful in its depth of flavour and floral elegance.
