(3x150cl) 2018Vinous (91-93)
The 2018 Pommard Les Rugiens-Bas 1er Cru, which includes two-thirds whole clusters, has a well-defined and complex bouquet, a cousin of the Pezerolles in some ways. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-grained tannins, displaying a little more matière and slightly creamier in texture than the Les Pezerolles, leading to a precise, persistent, slightly more opulent finish. Very fine indeed.$998.00 -

The 2021 Pommard Les Rugiens-Bas 1er Cru has a slightly chalky nose, a mélange of red and black fruit and touches of undergrowth and autumn leaves. The palate is medium-bodied with fine grain tannins, crisp and focused, quite elegant towards the finish with a long aftertaste. I can see this evolving over the long term.$1,250.00 -

Bright, pale yellow. Soil-driven aromas of apple, white pepper and crushed stone. Dense, broad and fine-grained, with terrific lemony energy to the flavors of spices and dusty stone. Very rich but given definition and grip by its dusty, tactile mouth feel. The very long, floral finish perfumes the mouth. Superb.$2,050.00 -

The 2010 Puligny-Montrachet Le Cailleret bristles on the palate with tons of energy and focus. The Cailleret is vibrant, chiseled and beautifully articulated from start to finish. It is at once broad yet pointed, in a marvelous expression of site and vintage. Alix de Montille did a fabulous job with the 2010. This is a superb showing. Anticipated maturity: 2014+.$2,280.00 -

Tasted blind at the Burgundy 2011 horizontal tasting in Beaune. The aromatics on the Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru les Caillerets 2011 is more austere than Anne-Claude Leflaive’s Clavoillon, but it is beautifully defined with wet limestone and sea cave scents that with aeration become very intense. The palate is crisp and taut with very fine tension. It just loses a little intensity toward the finish, but it possesses a surfeit of freshness and precision. This was one of the best white 2011s Burgundy wines that I tasted during an intensive week of peer group tasting.$2,075.00 -

(1x75cl) 2014Vinous (93)
(with an average age of 55 years, these vines produced 35 hectoliters per hectare in 2014): Ripe but tight nose hints at white peach, citrus fruits, flowers, rock and clove muted by sulfur, plus a touch of lichee. Very rich and thick, with the distinct creamy intensity of old vines, but not at all exotic in spite of the noteworthy sweetness to its stone and citrus fruit flavors. This wine really spreads out to saturate the palate on the long aftertaste, which features a lingering note of sweet macadamia nut.$253.00 -

This was a very strong showing from Domaine de Montille's 2015 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Caillerets, a taut, intense wine that offers up aromas of toasted nuts, citrus pith and a framing of smoky reduction. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, beautifully glossy and pure, with considerable concentration, bright balancing acids and a long, lingering finish. In its reductive, incisive style, this is an extremely successful contemporary white Burgundy.$258.00 -

Bright yellow with a green tinge. Aromas of nectarine, white pepper and spices are lifted by a hint of lavender. Brisk, energetic wine with noteworthy definition and delicacy to its complex flavors of citrus fruits and crushed-stone minerality. Very fresh for 2016, showing no dried-fruit character. This infant still needs time to knit but should evolve gracefully. Finishes very long and scented.$1,535.00 -

The 2017 Puligny-Montrachet Les Caillerets 1er Cru has a very fragrant bouquet offering touches of honeysuckle, orange zest, crushed stone and later more blood orange aromas. The palate is balanced, linear and fairly conservative after the aromatics. Maybe this is beginning to close up? After an initial period when it seems buttoned down, this Pucelles blossoms with aeration to reveal a gorgeous, refined, spicy finish with impressive persistence. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting in Savigny-lès-Beaune.$2,205.00 -

The 2018 Puligny-Montrachet Les Caillerets 1er Cru does not quite have the intensity on the nose compared to its peers. But it opens nicely with apple blossom and flinty aromas. The palate is well balanced with a smooth, slightly peppery entry, fine acidity, a little over-ripeness towards the finish that just detracts from the definition. Tasted blind at the Burgfest 2018 white tasting.$250.00 -
Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (93-96)
Fresh lemon colour. This wine is in its classic pure white fruit. Waves of flavour, offering both elegance as well as weight, a tiny bit richer at the back, but this cannot hold back the Cailleretishness of it. Superb length. Tasted: October 2020$357.00 -
Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (95-97)
Pale lemon colour. A whiff of riper fruit on the first nose, but in fact the whole is as well balanced as the rest of the cellar. Pure white fruit of great distinction, and very long indeed. An impeccable mineral thread throughout, white fruit, concentrated and threatening to turn into a spectacular wine. 13.4% alcohol. Tasted: October 2021$983.00 -
(6x75cl) 2021Vinous - Neal Martin (94)
The 2021 Puligny-Montrachet Les Caillerets 1er Cru has a wonderful bouquet that is in a league of its own against four other wines from Caillerets. Life-affirming delineation and mineralité, palpable energy, real race and class. The palate has just a tiny reduction that imparts energy and tension. Linear at first, it goes on and on at the finish, delivering the sapidity to demand another sip a.s.a.p. This is sophisticated and enchanting. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.$1,235.00 -

The 2018 Saint-Aubin En Remilly 1er Cru has an energetic, focused, flinty bouquet with a spring in its step. The terroir comes through beautifully. The palate is quite effervescent with crisp acidity and good tension. Citrus-fresh and vibrant towards the finish, this has a dash of spice lingering on the aftertaste. Superb.

The 2021 Saint-Aubin En Remilly 1er Cru has a fragrant, floral nose with pressed white flowers that complement the linden and pear scents. The palate is well-balanced, elegant and pure with a fine thread of acidity towards the ginger-tinged finish. This is very commendable given the challenges of the season. Seven barrels were produced instead of forty-eight.$758.00 -
