Refined aromas of flowers and talcum powder can be discerned in the nose of the 1999 Puligny-Montrachet La Truffiere. This medium-bodied wine reveals a gorgeously expressive personality of minerals, stones, pears, and anise. It is broad yet detailed and elegant, with outstanding depth and an exemplary finish. Projected maturity: 2003-2010.
