"The 2008 Puligny-Montrachet “Perrières” from Domaine Louis Carillon is an absolutely stellar wine in the making, soaring from the glass in a youthful blend of apples, oranges, stony minerality, lemon zest, spring flowers and vanillin oak. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied complex and rock solid at the core, with snappy acids, laser-like focus and superb length and grip on the young and oh, so promising finish. This is a classic young example of Perrières from the Carillon family, and it really deserves a couple more years to allow its secondary layers of complexity to emerge."
