The 2012 Puligny Montrachet 1er Cru Champ Gain is very reserved and mineral-driven on the nose that appears to have closed up since bottling. The palate is citrus-fresh on the entry with well-integrated oak, just a slight honeyed note toward the hazelnut finish that lingers long in the mouth, that tang of dried orange peel begging you to take another sip. This is a superb Puligny-Montrachet from the Domaine but it needs a couple more years bottle age.
