The 2024 Puligny-Montrachet Les Pucelles 1er Cru, which Brice de la Morandière quipped was a "Grand Cru" (well, he does have grounds), has a succinct bouquet with lime, citrus peel and light flinty aromas that gradually unfurl in the glass. The palate is well balanced, cut from a similar cloth to the Les Combettes but with a slightly creamier texture. Perhaps it does not quite have the same "electricity" as the latter. This is long in the mouth, but juxtaposing the two cuvées I might err towards the Les Combettes. ~ (93) Neal Martin, Vinous 8-1-2025

A completely different aromatic profile is comprised by notes of honeysuckle, orange peel, carnation, acacia blossom and a plethora of spice nuances. The delicious, generously proportioned and relatively forward medium-bodied flavors coat the palate with sappy dry extract before culminating in a wonderfully complex, balanced, clean and nicely dry finish that possess first-rate persistence. This is also very classy and a wine that is sufficiently pliant that it could be enjoyed young if desired. ~ (95) Allen Meadows, Burghound 6-10-2025
