2017 Chapelle de Blagny Puligny Montrachet 1er Cru Hameau de Blagny

Knockout museum release from the cellars at Chapelle de Blagny.

Very limited & from the magnificent 2017  White Burgundy vintage.

17 Points Jancis Robinson - "Nose still a bit subdued. But massive business going on underneath. Buzzing with interest!" Drink 2024-2032

The vine age is 40-70 years from this cool higher site.  The use of oak is a mix of 1 to 4 year old barrels (no new oak).   Another citrus driven expression of Chardonnay from this estate, but also punctuated by herbiness & spearmint. It's taut & very long so look away if you are looking for more tropical expressions of Puligny - we are proper old school here.
