mineral reduction and lemon rind

Tasting the Zind-Humbrecht collections armed with what one knows of these vintages from most other establishments

Already delicious

slightly oaky

An attractively fresh nose is comprised of extract of plum and dark pinot fruit that is liberally laced with floral and spice nuances that are trimmed in subtle oak hints

Francois Carillon, Puligny Montrachet Combettes Vintage:2017 mineral reduction and lemon rind(from a . 78 ha parcel of vines planted in 1995). There is enough reduction present to render the nose impossible to fairly assess at present. Otherwise there is good volume to the medium bodied flavors that possess a seductive, even caressing mouth feel before culminating in a restrained and persistent if only moderately complex finale. This isnt quite as complex but there is even better length. (90 92) 2024+
