Puligny-Montrachet 1er cru Champs Canet 2012
A ripe and highly expressive nose of acacia blossom, white peach and a pretty array of citrus aromas gives way to solidly rich and relatively full-bodied flavors brimming with dry extract that confers a wonderfully textured, indeed almost chewy mouth feel onto the palate coating and naturally sweet finish. This doesn't quite have the superb delineation of the best here but it's an excellent wine all the same.

Burghound.com is the result of a nearly lifelong passion for the wines of Burgundy. For more than 30 years, I have been collecting the wines and visiting the region. Each year I spend nearly five months visiting, researching, tasting, exploring and evaluating. Burgundy is my obsession really. Expanding on my coverage of the coveted pinot noir grape, each issue provides continuous coverage of both Oregon and California pinot noir, with rotating coverage of Champagne and occasional special reports from other pinot producing regions.
