Reviewed June 2018A more expressive nose freely offers up aromas of mineral reduction, zest, essence of pear and a pretty top note of acacia blossom. The sleek, refined and intense flavors are very Puligny in character with plenty of minerality on the super-saline finish that delivers first-rate length. This isn't as dense or powerful as the Dents de Chien but it's notably finer. The two wines are qualitatively similar but offer markedly different drinking experiences. *Sweet spot. Outstanding*

Vinous
(no frost here; Morey has parcels planted in 1988 and 1952 and notes that his older vines are actually more productive): Pale yellow. Ripe apple and peach aromas are complemented by an enticing floral element. Fruity and floral flavors convey a touch of sweetness that's nicely buffered by a saline quality, not to mention slightly edgy acidity. This wine will no doubt benefit from four or five years of cellaring. (ST)
