TASTING NOTES:	Given how profoundly well the ’09 Combettes was showing, I was perfectly prepared to give that the award for the finest premier cru in the Leflaive cellars this year, but the brilliant Pucelles is even a tiny step up in quality. The 2009 Pucelles offers up another very nicely reserved and bottomless nose of peach, pear, apple, lemon blossoms, beautiful, chalky soil tones and a nice touch of vanillin oak. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and very pure on the attack, with a rock solid core of fruit, stung acids and again, laser-like focus on the very, very long and classy finish. It would be a crime to open this bottle before it has had six or seven years of bottle age on it, as though the wine will be great to drink earlier on, it will be nowhere near its magical plateau of peak drinkability. A stunning wine.

About Puligny-Montrachet Premier Cru

Puligny-Montrachet Premier Cru wines are among the most refined and sought-after expressions of Chardonnay in Burgundy. Located in the heart of the Côte de Beaune, the village of Puligny-Montrachet has built a global reputation for producing wines defined by precision, minerality, and ageing potential.

Puligny-Montrachet is home to a significant number of Premier Cru vineyards, with around 100 hectares classified at this level, each offering a distinct expression of terroir . These vineyards are typically planted on limestone-rich soils with excellent drainage, creating ideal conditions for Chardonnay to achieve both tension and aromatic clarity.

The style of Puligny-Montrachet Premier Cru is often characterised by purity and structure rather than power. The wines typically display notes of citrus, green apple, white flowers, and crushed stone, supported by a firm mineral backbone. Compared to neighbouring Chassagne-Montrachet, Puligny wines tend to be more linear and focused, with a strong emphasis on balance and precision.

Well-known Premier Cru sites such as Les Pucelles, Les Folatières, Les Combettes, and Les Perrières are considered benchmarks of the appellation. These wines are capable of ageing for 10 to 20 years in strong vintages, developing additional complexity while maintaining freshness and definition.

The reputation of Puligny-Montrachet has been shaped by some of the most respected producers in Burgundy, including Domaine Leflaive, Domaine Etienne Sauzet, and Domaine Carillon, whose wines are widely regarded as benchmarks for the appellation .

Puligny-Montrachet Premier Cru represents a benchmark category for white Burgundy, offering wines that combine elegance, terroir expression, and long-term ageing potential.
