The 2023 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Sous le Puits derives from a higher-altitude site, but it's quite rich and ripe, delivering aromas of sweet stone fruit, beeswax and flowers followed by a medium to full-bodied, ample and satiny palate.

The 2018 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Sous le Puits offers up aromas of pear, clear honey and praline, followed by a medium to full-bodied, supple and fleshy palate that's open-knit and charming. This will drink well young.

Aromas of white flowers, crisp yellow orchard fruit and clear honey introduce the 2019 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Sous le Puits, a medium to full-bodied, open and charming wine that's lively and easygoing in profile.

The 2021 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Sous le Puits is fleshy and open-knit, exhibiting aromas of crisp yellow orchard fruit, beeswax and freshly baked bread, followed by a medium to full-bodied, ample and charming palate.

Already bottled, the 2017 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Sous le Puits is showing well, unfurling in the glass with aromas of sweet citrus fruit, beeswax and crisp green apples. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, ample and fleshy, with nice depth and concentration and a clean, pure finish.

The 2016 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Sous le Puits unfurls in the glass with a youthfully reserved but attractively pure bouquet of ripe lemons, citrus blossom and pastry cream. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, ample and satiny with a broad attack, a crisp but fleshy mid-palate and a pure finish. With a few years in bottle, I suspect this will evolve into something quite exotic and gourmand.

A white with very pretty sliced apple, pear and mineral character. Medium to full body, bright acidity and a clean finish. Minerality rules here.

This is incredibly perfumed with lavender, pineapple and lemon character. Medium to full body, flint and stone flavors and plenty of dried pineapple and mangoes. Drink or hold.

Love the candied-lemon and lime aromas to this wine. Green mangoes, too. Full-bodied, and tight with minerality. Linear and focused. A little austere now. Subtle. Give it two or three years to come around.

This offers a fresh and lively array of citrus and melon aromas, as well as an edge of honeysuckle and hazelnut. There’s a seamless and taut edge to the palate with a very bold and assertive thread of acidity. Great Puligny! Drink or hold.

A dense, layered white with cooked-apple, honey and light pear aromas and flavors. It’s full-bodied and tight with lovely fruit. White pepper and spice. Intense finish. Drink or hold.

A cool and restrained Puligny-Montrachet, with delicate white-fruit and floral aromas. Sleek, linear and elegantly dry, the finish long and delicate, with floral and mineral nuances. Drink or hold.

Rating: 95 –95

This beautiful Puligny-Montrachet 1er cru has a subtle nose of bergamot and orange zest with notes of wild herbs. Excellent tension on the generous but focused palate, driving the very long, structured finish, which has a serious stony minerality. From a high-altitude site that may well become better known due to climate change. Drink or hold.
