Critic ratings

vinous 2019

Rating: 92 –94

The 2019 Puligny-Montrachet Les Folatières 1er Cru displays more mineral tension and energy on the nose compared to the Le Referts. It is very focused with wet limestone, apple blossom and a touch of blackcurrant leaf. The palate is well balanced with a touch of white chocolate on the entry, more expressive and deeper than the Les Referts with more tension and terroir expression on the finish. Excellent.

vinous 2020

Rating: 93 –95

The 2020 Puligny-Montrachet Les Folatières 1er Cru has even more mineralité on the nose than the Les Referts, displaying brilliant delineation and concentration and hints of apricot and white flowers that come from the millerandé berries. The palate is very well balanced with a fine bead of acidity, and so much energy and tension. Quite saline toward the finish, with grapefruit and lime lingering on the aftertaste. Simply superb.

The 2019 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Folatières is a fine success, offering up notes of pear, mandarin, fresh bread, peach and nutmeg. Medium to full-bodied, fleshy and enveloping, it's lively but gourmand, with an attractive core of fruit and a long, expansive finish.

Tasted blind at the annual “Burgfest” tasting in Bouilland. The 2013 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Folatières has a very pretty bouquet, the new oak relatively pronounced compared to others, but it should be absorbed by the intense citrus fruit with time. The palate is well balanced with good weight in the mouth, a touch of honeycomb and white peach, plenty of spice towards the finish that maintains fine weight and focus. This is a sterling Folatières full of breeding and it should offer 12-15 years of drinking fulfillment. Tasted May 2016.

The 2015 Puligny Montrachet 1er Cru les Folatieres has a strict, backward, introspective bouquet that perhaps does not convey its terror with the gusto of the Les Referts at this point. That may change of course. The palate is very well balanced with good salinity on the entry, understated at first but building and fanning out towards the spicy, lively finish. Superb salinity here, yet this Les Folatières will needs 2-3 years in bottle. Those who have a penchant for this wine should stock up on the 2015, since after the 2016 vintage, half the vineyard was pulled up.

The 2017 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Folatières is exceptional, and once again one of the high points of the Bachelet brothers' portfolio. Offering up aromas of crisp yellow orchard fruit, white flowers and honeycomb, the wine is medium to full-bodied, satiny and layered, with excellent depth and dimension at the core, good concentration and chewy extract despite its elegant, integrated profile, concluding with superb length on the finish.

The 2012 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Folatieres is more elegant than the Les Referts, understated at first, uncurling to reveal neatly placed mineral, sea cave and citrus aromas. The palate is again, very understated and coy on the entry, more a Puligny of texture and poise that obvious fruit intensity. Again, this deserves some time in bottle and I suspect will outlive the Folatieres. I have long admired the wines of this Maranges-based producer who have a knack of producing taut, linear, mineral-driven wines that are as intellectual as they are pleasurable. This was my first trip south to small village of Dezize-les-Maranges where I met Marc and Alex Bachelet who escorted me over to a separate tasting room. The brothers established the domaine back in 2005 with the aid of their father and uncle after honing their craft overseas and today they farm 20-hectares of both their own vines and rented vineyards. The tenets here are quite simple: no herbicides in the vineyard with regular ploughing to aerate the soil; early picking to capture acidity, long pressing, small deboubagement, natural ferments and around 20 to 30% new oak. Maturation is in large 350-litre barrels in order to make fresher wines for keeping, and their policy is for less oxygen during elevage, eschewing batonnage. The wines usually age for one year in barrel and they are then racked into stainless steel on the lees for 8 months and bottled in April. Their Puligny-based wines take center stage: a thrilling set that really get to the heart of the terroir, razor sharp wines that walk in their kitten heels instead of boots. But do not overlook their Santenay Blanc or their fabulous Maranges La Fussiere that doubtless represents outstanding value. Importer: Vintage 59, Washington, DC; tel. (202) 966-9218. Also available from various merchants in the UK (BBR, Bibendum, Justerini& Brooks and Tanners.)

Tasted blind at the Burgundy 2011 horizontal tasting in Beaune. The Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Folatières 2011 from Bachelet-Monnot has quite a reserved bouquet, but it is well defined and subtle, nicely focus and understated. The palate is fresh and vibrant with crisp acidity, saline on the tip of the tongue with good depth and complexity on the saline finish. There is very fine breeding here and it should age well.
