This lieu-dit, entitled only to a village appellation, lies across the road, but downhill from the Grand Cru Bienvenue-Bâtard-Montrachet. Even in Jean Pascal’s talented hands, this village wine is not in the Grand Cru category, but it is more impressive than many producers’ premier cru — and at a far more attractive price. It leads with the lovely floral scent characteristic of Puligny-Montrachet and follows with a haunting minerality. Long and lacey, its charms are readily apparent now, so treat yourself.
