Louis Latour Description
The premier cru vineyard of Puligny-Montrachet "Sous les Puits" has a south-easterly exposure and is situated at the top of the hill of Blagny, just above "La Garenne", near a spring, hence the name of "Sous le Puits" ("Under the Well").
This wine has a brilliant pale yellow colour. The nose is brioche-like, with hints of vanilla. The palate is full and round, with hints of acacia honey and almond, with a fine mineral finish.
James Suckling: 95 Points
Aromas of flint, grapefruit rind, orchard fruit, chalk and fresh herbs. The high-tension palate is precise with mineral-driven acidity and a textural, rounded mouthfeel. Perhaps the most linear and focused release of the 2023 premier cru whites. Delicious.
Wine Advocate: 92 Points
The 2023 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Sous le Puits derives from a higher-altitude site, but it's quite rich and ripe, delivering aromas of sweet stone fruit, beeswax and flowers followed by a medium to full-bodied, ample and satiny palate.
