The 2015 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Folatières is a very nice example of the vintage, wafting from the glass with a generous bouquet of buttered apples, citrus zest, white flowers and a lavish framing of nutty new oak. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, rich and flavorful with a textural attack, chewy mid-palate and succulent acids. The finish is long and racy, though this is definitely a ripe, buxom rendition of Folatières which is very characteristic of the vintage. Note that this tasting note applies to the négociant bottling, as distinct from Olivier Leflaive's domaine version from the vines formerly part of Domaine Leflaive.

Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting, the 2014 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Folatières demonstrated a lot of reduction on the nose, and it was difficult to discern the terroir underneath. The palate is balanced, concentrated and slightly honeyed, suggesting a later picking than its peers. It is rounded in the mouth with Clementine and tangerines toward the finish. I suspect it will improve with a couple more years in bottle.

Tasted blind at the annual “Burgfest” tasting in Bouilland. The 2013 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Folatières has a well defined precise bouquet with vibrant citrus fruit, cold stone, just a small amount of reduction but great focus. The palate is well balanced with crisp citrus fruit, nicely focused with good depth and fruit concentration, the mineralité coming through right on the finish. This is one of the better Folatières this year without doubt. Tasted May 2016.
