Pernot/Paul Puligny-Montrachet 1er cru Les Pucelles 2019

This Pucelles has a big thick rich ripe texture, exuberant more than heavy, but with just a touch of heat at the back, then stretches out beautifully behind.

93 points Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(from a huge 3.5 ha parcel of 45+ year old vines, most of which is in Folatières proper with .40 ha in Peux Bois). A more floral suffused nose also reflects a vague hint of exoticism with the aromas of dried peach, apricot, passion fruit and candied citrus.

This offers outstanding persistence as well as better overall freshness and verve. Worth considering. Drink: 2025+. (Jun 2021)"

Bill Nanson (Burgundy Report): "A little more oak, maybe 35% vs the 20% of the previous 1ers. Not the biggest nose, or the deepest, but close on both counts.

There is concentration and balance here, yet today this is quite a tight wine – hinting at many aspects but not really delivering many of them.
