2024, Domaine de la Vougeraie, PULIGNY-MONTRACHET, 1er Cru, 'Champs Gains'

Champ Gain is high up the slope on very free draining clay and limestone and facing southeast. Vougeraie have 0.3217 of a hectare.

A full crop. Mid lemon yellow, a little oak evident on the nose, alongside the waxed and candied lemon skin nose. Much more linear [than the Chassagne] with adequate fruit concentration, and some acidity to finish. Good length too. Drink from 2028-2034.

The 2024 Puligny-Montrachet Champ Gain 1er Cru offers yellow plum and light scents of pressed white flowers on the nose that unfold in the glass. The palate is well balanced with a fine bead of acidity, not terribly complex at this stage but I appreciate the spiciness that comes through on the finish. Fine.

Extra density of white-fleshed fruit and perfume. A more sparkly complexity of this flavour, narrowing, with intensity and small citrus bitters. Very long – what a super wine…
