I adored the sweet, rich, yellow plum and white peach aromas of the 2002 Puligny-Montrachet Les Combettes. Medium-bodied, broad, deep, and fleshy, this is a concentrated, delineated wine crammed with white pepper-laced lemons, candied pears, as well as anise. It is spicy, intense, and boasts an impressively long, fleshy finish. Projected maturity: now-2011.
