Puligny Montrachet Enseigneres 2000 Coche Dury

Avis professionnels

Robert Parker (90)

Probably the weakest, or rather "least compelling" of four Puligny’s tasted from Coche-Dury, the millennial offering does not quite match two previous encounters. Even so, the 2000 Puligny Montrachet les Enseignieres retains that wonderful, minerally nose that is very nicely detailed for what was a difficult vintage with granite, orange rind and hints of acacia emerging from the glass. The palate is well-balanced with a fine line of acidity: hints of ginger and spices enlivening the stony finish. I suspect that other bottles might show a little more pizzazz, but this is still an impressive showing considering the challenges of the vintage.
