Pierre Yves Colin Morey, Puligny Montrachet Champ Gain Vintage:2013 lavender and sweet spice giveHere the nose is dominated by sulfur at present and thus impossible to read. Otherwise there is excellent volume and mid palate density to the punchy and well detailed medium weight flavors that deliver fine length on the mildly edgy finish. As the description suggests this is on the awkward side but the underlying material is so good that I am optimistic that it will harmonize once it is in bottle. (90 93) 2021+
