The 2015 Puligny Montrachet 1er Cru les Chalumeaux offers very good terroir expression on the nose: granite, grey slate and fumé scents emerging from the glass and gaining impressive intensity. The palate is clean and fresh, a pleasant reductive touch on the entry, a keen line of acidity with a smear of clear honey right towards the finish that betrays the vintage character. This is a well-made Chalumeaux.
