Pernot's 2017 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Pucelles isn't as concentrated as his Folatières, but it's charming and elegant, offering up notes of ripe apples, Meyer lemon, pastry cream and fresh peach. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, glossy and succulent with a giving, open-knit profile. Readers looking for more tension will want to focus on the other premiers crus in the cellar. - William Kelley
