Henri Boillot Puligny-Montrachet Les Pucelles 1er Cru 2012
92-95/100 vinous.com
"Green-tinged medium yellow. Ripe stone fruits, pear, honey and hazelnut on the inviting nose and palate. Fat, rich and chewy; this extract-rich wine boasts terrific solidity and depth of fruit. Finishes with outstanding force and length. Has the palate presence of a grand cru. (Incidentally, there's no Folatieres in 2012; Boillot only made his domain bottlings from Puligny-Montrachet.)"

"The most extroverted of the Puligny-Montrachet 1er Crus, the 2012 Les Pucelles blossoms in all directions with intense, voluptuous fruit and dazzling texture. Mint, honey, hazelnut, pear and apricot notes abound in an intensely layered, resonant wine with more than enough depth to fill out its broad shoulders. A creamy, resonant finish rounds things out in style. Readers who appreciate the more opulent side of white Burgundy will adore the Pucelles"
