Puligny-Montrachet – 2007 – 90 points – Wine Spectator
“Shy in aroma, this lean, racy white has intensity. Lemon curd, apple, pastry and chalk notes mingle as this turns firm and bracing on the mouthwatering finish. Very refined.”

Puligny-Montrachet – 2007 – 93 points – Wine Enthusiast
“A finely balanced wine, with the acidity a pure streak through the white pear and lime flavors. The wine is rich, the wood so carefully judged with the beautiful fruit.”

"...this village wine is heady and distinctive...ripe fruit—ranging from nectarine to quince, ginger and honey. The flavors tessellate within a frame of acidity and a broader outline of oak, flawlessly structured. Decant this for roast veal."

Puligny-Montrachet – 2007 – 87-90 points – Burghound.com
"...extremely fresh with an expressive nose of acacia blossom, white peach and discreetly spiced pear that introduces the vibrant, stony and sappy flavors that aren’t overly concentrated but possess fine precision on the persistent finish...."
