The 2020 Puligny-Montrachet Clavoillon ler Cru has a delineated and tightly coiled nose with crushed stone-infused green apple, rather fresh considering the growing season, with hints of grass clipping. The palate is cohesive on the entry with a bitter lemon note that lends this Puligny tension; it's fresh and saline with a cohesive and persistent finish. Very classy and has immense promise.

The 2020 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Clavoillon is lovely, unwinding in the glass with notes of citrus zest and pear mingled with hints of white flowers, bread dough and wheat toast. Medium to full-bodied, ample and satiny, with racy acids and a fine-boned, elegant profile, it concludes with a long, saline finish.

This white evokes earth and stone flavors, along with peach, lemon and spice notes. Dense, with light tannins emerging on the butterscotch finish. A bit rigid now, yet vibrant and long. Best from 2025 through 2033.
