wet stone and liqueur of red berry fruit

minerally piquant yet balanced and complex palate with a lingering salinity and a fresh and grippy finish

anise and spice

Chateau Puligny Montrachet, Chevalier Montrachet Blanc Vintage:2011 The 2007 Langhe Costa RussiStrong reduction completely dominates the underlying fruit though there is terrific verve and punch to the intensely mineral driven big bodied and overtly powerful flavors that possess gorgeous complexity on the textured, chiseled and wonderfully long finish. This is a classy wine of harmony and grace and one that should amply repay up to a decade of cellar time. (92 95) 2021+
