Puligny Combettes, Louis Jadot 2015

Subtle wood notes frame the notably ripe aromas of petrol, apple, pear liqueur and soft floral nuances. There is excellent volume to the full-bodied and very rich flavors that possess plenty of sappy dry extract that confers a seductive texture to the bitter lemon-inflected finale.

The 2015 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Combettes has an attractive nose: citrus fruit, yellow plum and a touch of egg whites all nicely defined. The palate is fresh on the entry with crisp acidity, quite spicy and lively, although the finish seems to close the show early and clams up. Give it 3-5 years once in bottle and it should stretch its wings.
