Puligny Montrachet, Les Referts, 1er Cru, Fichet

Note:

Fichet`s 2007 Puligny-Montrachet Les Referts smells of carnation, fresh lime, and ginger; introduces toasted nuts and grains on a firm, palpably dense, faintly oily palate; and finishes with exuberant energy and striking lift, if not (at least yet) enormous complexity. This has the makings of something extraordinary with a few years of bottle age, and I would expect it to be worth following for more than a half dozen.
