The 2023 Puligny Chalumaux 1er Cru has a lovely bouquet with touches of chalk dust, light apple blossom scents, fine delineation and a little more concentration than the Garenne. The palate is well balanced, fresh and saline with a bright bead of acidity and a pretty, lightly spiced finish. Charming.(NM)

Note: from a 1.28 ha parcel that comprises about 20% of the entire vineyard. An airy and pretty combination blends notes of various white orchard fruit, especially pear and Granny Smith apple, with those of spice and citrus wisps. The rich and solidly voluminous flavors possess a fleshy mouthfeel before concluding in a clean and dry finish that could also use better depth. I like the balance and this should progressively develop better complexity if given a chance. *Burghound Outstanding!*
