2014 Henri Boillot Puligny Montrachet 1er Cru Clos De La Mouchere - 750ml
Wine With Bok - 9.5/10 stars
The wine was really in harmony, great but not overwhelming acidity with the balance of very soft and fruity fruits came into perfect balance. One of the best premier cru you can find out there, definitely worth the Monopole status apart from what I believe is bottle variations.
Burghound - 95 points
This is sufficiently reduced that it presently masks the fruit and if you're tempted to try a bottle in its youth I would strongly advise decanting it first. Otherwise there is outstanding density to the focused and powerful middle weight plus flavors that stain the palate with dry extract that also helps to buffer the intensely mineral-driven finale that just goes on for minutes. This is flat out brilliant though note that it will not be an early drinker. In sum, this is a genuine 'wow' wine. *Outstanding* (6/2016)
Vinous - 94 points
Knockout nose combines ripe stone fruits, lemon, lime, smoky minerals, clove and marzipan. Sappy and thick, with the brisk lemon and lime fruit element currently dominated by soil-driven saline minerality. This very backward, salty wine boasts terrific breadth and more than enough extract to buffer its five grams of acidity. Splendid. (9/2016)
