The medium-to-full-bodied 1999 Puligny-Montrachet Enseigneres exhibits shy white fruit aromas. It is luscious, with a satin-textured character filled with poached pears, candied apples, anise, and acacia blossoms. A plump, sexy wine with no sharp edges, it seamlessly rolls across the taster's palate spreading out its soft, sweet flavors. Drink it over the next 5-6 years.
