The 2016 Puligny-Montrachet Village comes from two parcels but was reduced from 20 to six barrels due to frost. It has a fresh green apple and grass clipping-scented bouquet, much more expressive than the Vougeot Clos de Prieuré. The palate is well balanced with great volume and intensity, hints of blackcurrant leaf enhancing the finish that feels long and tender. This is a commendable village cru from Vougeraie.
