Vincent Girardin, Puligny Montrachet 1er Cru Les Combettes 2020

"The 2020 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Combettes is a serious, concentrated wine from a parcel farmed by Germain and his team. Unwinding in the glass with scents of citrus oil, crisp stone fruit, freshly baked bread and light reduction, it's medium to full-bodied, satiny and structured, with a tightly wound, racy profile and a saline finish. This is one of the longer-haul prospects in the range this year."- Wine Advocate

"Here too prominent notes of mineral reduction add breath to the overtly floral nose of exotic tea, freshly sliced apple and a hint of orange peel. The refined, pure and attractively intense flavors are punchy but almost delicate on the very dry, focused and lingering finish. This is also a wine of class and grace."- Allen Meadows
