The Puligny-Montrachet Les Combettes 1er Cru 2020 is a rich yet finely sculpted Chardonnay, capturing the warmth of the vintage while retaining precision and lift. Aromas of ripe pear, white peach, lemon oil, and acacia blossom rise from the glass, layered with notes of hazelnut, crushed stone, and subtle spice. On the palate, the wine is broad and enveloping, yet tightly focused by vibrant acidity and a pronounced mineral spine. A refined creaminess supports flavors of citrus zest, almond, and orchard fruit without blurring definition. As it opens, saline and lightly smoky nuances add complexity and depth. The finish is long, structured, and resonant—an authoritative Les Combettes that balances generosity with unmistakable Puligny tension.

Domaine Henri Boillot is one of Burgundy’s most meticulous and performance-driven estates, renowned for its uncompromising precision and structural clarity. Based in Volnay, the domaine applies rigorous standards in the vineyard—low yields, exact harvest timing, and strict selection—paired with highly controlled cellar practices. Boillot’s whites are celebrated for their intensity framed by tension, achieved through long lees aging and judicious oak use that supports, never dominates. Puligny-Montrachet is interpreted here with discipline and mineral focus rather than overt richness. Les Combettes, a Premier Cru bordering Meursault, is known for its natural generosity and depth. In Boillot’s hands, it gains definition, energy, and impressive aging potential.
