Jacques Prieur - Puligny-Montrachet Les Combettes 2005 (750ml)
Jacques Prieur Description
One often hears and reads that 2005 is a vintage of the century. Indeed, the tremendous potential of wines from this magnificent year is already obvious. Not only is this a very great vintage, but the wines are also delicious young. However, wine lovers would be well-advised to hold off from drinking them straight away, and their patience will be richly rewarded.
100% Chardonnay
COLOUR: Visibly rich with a beautiful colour featuring yellow highlights
BOUQUET: Concentrated nose of yellow fruit (peach) with vanilla and slightly smoky aromas
PALATE: Starts out very rich and full-bodied. The middle palate is quite full, with apricot and peach flavours, a touch of citrus and a dash of tropical fruit. Plenty of acidity, but this is compensated by the wine's intrinsic richness
