Burhgound, 88-90 Points 

"Prominent petrol character is present on the ripe and fresh aromas of mostly citrus confit and white peach. The succulent, round and delicious middle weight flavors possess a lovely sense of underlying tension on the clean, dry, youthfully austere and ever-so-slightly rustic finale. This is firm enough to suggest that it's going to need at least 6 to 10 years of keeping before it's fully ready for prime-time drinking." 

Winemaker Notes: 

"This wine is produced from the sole holdings of the Pillot family in the neighboring village of Puligny. Les Noyers Bret vineyard lies just downslope of Le Montrachet and its assorted hyphenations, and Jean-Marc owns a small parcel of vines between 50 and 100 years old here. Often among the most elegant of his wines (as befits the appellation), this is classical and precise, with truly outstanding length and a palate-coating intensity which swells toward the finish." 

Alcohol: 13%
