The broad finish builds nicely, coating the palate with steely mineral flavors and a hint of black pepper. Much more Puligny than 2009 in style, and built to age.

...delineated, intense and sappy flavors that possess excellent complexity if not great concentration, all wrapped in a ripe yet cool, focused and vibrant finish. Lovely and also quite stylish.
