2012 Domaine Henri Clerc & Fils Puligny-Montrachet - France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune, Puligny-Montrachet (5/22/2017)
New producer to me, purchased on winebid for a very reasonable price.
Cork was 90% soaked through nearly to the top. But color and nose were solid.
Lovely, fresh P-M. Notes of melon, bay, and oak spice with good energy. Round and rich on the palate but with mouthwatering acidity. Finishes with citrus peel and nice minerality. Great for the < $30 price.
I’d say this will age delightfully for the next 5+ years with its structure and complexity but given the cork I’m not sure if it would have been a premox victim. (91 pts.)
