James Suckling, 93 Points

"This Puligny-Montrachet has pronounced licorice and acacia blossom aromas. Quite a succulent wine with good concentration and fine tannins that give it precise contours. Excellent clarity in the long, straight and animating finish. Drink or hold."

Jasper Morris, 88-91 Points

"An attractive pale lemon yellow. Notably reductive nose. Some greengage behind. The reduction adds a smoky touch across the palate, and slightly toughens the finish. I expect this will clean up later, a little harsh at the moment. Drink from 2027-2032. Tasted Nov 2023."

Winemaker Notes:

"Bitouzet’s lone Puligny-Montrachet is produced from a 0.6-hectare 1955 planting (half replanted in 2000) in the lieu-dit Les Levrons, which lies just below premier cru Les Referts on the slope in the northern part of the village. François crafts a Puligny of impeccable, crystalline clarity from this site, with more filigree, citrus-tinged fruit than his Meursaults, but with an equally authoritative, if less weighty, undercarriage of earth-derived minerality. It spends 16 months in 20-25% new barrels during its élevage."
