Olivier Leflaive Folatieres Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru 2019

The 2019 Puligny-Montrachet Folatières 1er Cru has a lighter and more airy bouquet: dew-speckled green apples, gunflint and light spicy aromas come together to create a complex and involving set of aromatics. The oak is nicely integrated here. The palate is well-balanced with a harmonious texture, perfectly-pitched acidity, taut and linear with a nuanced, apricot and quincetinged finish that glides across the senses. Lovely. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting. Drinking window: 2025-2045. Score – 93. (Neal Martin, vinous.com, Dec. 12, 2023)
