Burghound, April 2009

(25+ year old vines aged in 25% new wood). A pure, expressive and layered nose is beautifully nuance with acacia blossom, lemon and apple hints as well as wet stone wisps that are also reflected by the intense, sappy and tension-filled middle weight flavors that offer excellent finishing length and delineation. There is a hint of salinity on the mouth coating finish and I like the intense stoniness.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, December 2009

From high up above Puligny and south of Blagny, the 2007 Puligny Montrachet La Garenne exhibits distinctive chalkiness and invigorating notes of lemon zest and pepper in the context of a rather brash acidity, all aspects many observers would associate with high elevation and high active lime in the soil. Boudot intimates that it is a challenging vintage for wines from the rocky nose-bleed sections of the Cote. But frankly, I rather admire the tight, bright, focused, invigorating, energetically thrusting personality on exhibit here. Bittersweet floral and high-toned herbal notes serve for further complexity all the way through to the wine's long finish. I'd especially like to check out where this is in a couple of years, and suspect it might well reward 6-8 years in bottle. -David Schildknecht

A delicious young white, from the acacia, lime blossom and hazelnut aromas and flavors to the long, mineral- and spice-tinged aftertaste. It's all underscored by a vibrant structure. Best from 2012 through 2024. 105 cases imported.
