(from the Puligny side)

frangipane and white flower-scented bouquet with subtle nougat scents in the background lending it an exotic edge

There is very fine mid-palate density to the much bigger and more powerful flavors that coat the palate with dry extract on the citrusy and bone-dry finale that offers impressive persistence

This is a Bâtard of finesse and understated rather than overt muscle and imposing size and weight

6% Cabernet Franc and 2% Petit Verdot

Clos Rougeard, Saumur Champigny Bourg other_regions_australia (from the Puligny side)This barrel sample expresses liquorice, vanilla and dark fruits, but there's also a Burgundian undercurrent of Morello cherry that comes to the fore. Finely etched tannins provide the foundation for this outstanding 2017.
