"The 2015 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru le Cailleret has a very composed and elegant bouquet with attractive aromas of hazelnut and white chocolate accompanied by minerals. This is very pretty. The palate is very well balanced with a fine bead of acidity, almost Meursault-like in style thanks to its walnut and hazelnut notes, the finish nicely structured with a persistent spicy aftertaste. This might well become the best white from Boyer-Martenot this year."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
Produces the world's most revered Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from a mosaic of tiny, terroir-defined climats. Its hierarchy of village, Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards makes site the ultimate expression of quality.
A pinnacle of white Burgundy, producing taut, mineral and long-lived Chardonnay of great precision and finesse.
2015 in Burgundy was warm and dry, yielding concentrated, powerful and opulent reds with ripe tannins from low yields; the whites are richer and generous, though some show comparatively lower acidity.
The world's most versatile white grape, producing everything from steely Chablis to rich, oaked whites. Its neutrality makes it a mirror of terroir and winemaking, and the foundation of white Burgundy and Champagne.
