Les Pucelles is one of Puligny's most prestigious Premier Cru vineyards, adjacent to the Grand Crus. Henri Boillot's 2017—a classic Burgundy vintage with balanced expression—received outstanding critical acclaim. This is Boillot's house style at its best: straight, tense, and elegant, with the kind of mineral focus that only top Puligny sites deliver. The 2017's moderate alcohol (rarely exceeding 13%) keeps everything fresh and focused.

Professional Reviews

Burghound

BH 94
"Classic Pucelles aromas of honeysuckle, acacia blossom, lavender and spice add depth to the range of yellow citrus fruit aromas. The gorgeously refined medium-bodied flavors possess a succulent mid-palate mouth feel that contrasts with the racy, citrusy and minty bone dry and youthfully austere finish. This too is very much built-to-age and is going to require extended patience."

Antonio Galloni

AG 96
"The 2017 Puligny-Montrachet Les Pucelles 1er Cru has an intense bouquet of petrichor and light orange peel notes. It lacks a little harmony at first but then comes together nicely. The palate is elegant and sensual, offering a fine bead of acidity and orange pith and nectarine flavors. Lightly spiced and quite persistent on the finish, with some lime on the aftertaste. Very fine and undeniably very pretty. This will be difficult to resist. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting in Savigny-lès-Beaune." -Neal Martin

Robert Parker

RP 94
"Aromas of crisp orchard fruit, mandarin, beeswax and white flowers introduce the 2017 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Pucelles, a medium to full-bodied, chiseled wine, that represents a comparatively tensile, tight-knit rendition of this site, displaying good concentration, depth and length." -William Kelley
