2019 Chavy-Chouet Puligny-Montrachet Premier Cru Les Champs Gain - 91 PTS - VINOUS

2019 Chavy-Chouet Puligny-Montrachet Premier Cru Les Champs Gain - 91 PTS - VINOUS

vinous logo"The 2019 Puligny-Montrachet Les Champs Gain 1er Cru, one of the last vines to be picked, even after the reds, has a well-defined bouquet of slate-like aromas, very cool and almost Zen-like in style. The palate is well balanced with a sappy entry and a fine bead of acidity. Taut and focused, if just needing a tad more grip on the finish. It will deserve 2–4 years in bottle.- Neal Martin"

2018 Chavy-Chouet Puligny-Montrachet Premier Cru Les Champs Gain - 91 PTS - VINOUS

vinous logo"The 2018 Puligny-Montrachet Les Champs-Gain 1er Cru has an intense, voluminous bouquet of yellow flowers, white peach and crushed stone aromas that feel very cohesive. The palate has a rounded texture on the entry. Slightly lower in acidity and quite plush for a Puligny, with a pure and quite persistent finish. Fine.- Neal Martin"
