Lucien Le Moine, Puligny Montrachet Les Folatieres 1er Cru, 2022
The 2022 vintage for Lucien Le Moine Puligny Montrachet Les Folatières 1er Cru brought a sense of serenity back to the vineyards, yielding a healthy harvest with good volumes. This year was notable for its higher-than-average temperatures and a record amount of sunshine, equivalent to an additional month of July, which contributed to particularly aromatic white wines with good maturity. Tasting notes reveal elegant aromas of white fruits like pear and apple, complemented by yellow-fleshed fruit notes and a subtle lemony touch. Delicate floral nuances of honeysuckle and acacia flower intermingle with chalky minerality and gentle toasted notes from lees aging. On the palate, there's a beautiful balance between freshness and a velvety texture, supported by a firm backbone, leading to an exceptionally long, refined, and floral finish. 【 A record-setting sunshine vintage yielding aromatic and well-balanced white wines 】. This wine is well-balanced and possesses excellent aging potential, with an optimal drinking window suggested between 2026 and 2035. For food pairings, it is recommended with a broth of langoustine, sea lettuce, and combawa. More broadly, this grand white 布根地 wine is a superb match for premium fish and shellfish dishes, such as lobster or crabmeat in a light wine sauce, or simply grilled or poached salmon, trout, or Dover sole.
