This is structured, spicy and long on the finish. Nice minerality anf flavors. As is often the case with young Blagny, it shows a bit more edginess than weight in the mid-palate. (Keith Wollenberg, K&L Burgundy Buyer, 06/08) Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar writes: "Exotic, deeply pitched aromas of stone fruits, smoke and nuts; seems marked by oak but Pernot says he used no new barrels for this cuvee At once supple and delicate, with a fine-grained texture and good breadth to the classically dry flavors. Finishes with a firm stony quality that makes it less harmonious in the early going than the Puligny villages." (Sept/Oct '09) 89 points Parker's Wine Advocate. Allen Meadows writes: "(the first crop from replanted vines). A more elegant and definitely more refined nose is ripe yet airy and cool with high-toned lemon zest and rose petal aromas that merge seamlessly into detailed, minerally and delicious flavors that are not particularly concentrated but possess ample finishing energy and length. This is actually quite good for such young vines and worth a look." (Burghound, 06/09)
