The 2014 Puligny Montrachet 1Er Cru Clos de la Garenne, which I thought was a monopole but apparently is not, comes from 90-year-old vines, some of the oldest belonging to Louis Jadot. Despite their age, they are still productive. It has a very refined bouquet with a surfeit of walnut and popcorn scents allied with fine mineralité. The palate is well balanced with crisp acidity, very tensile with just a twist of bitter lemon lending edginess towards the finish. Very fine, very classy.
