Vinified and aged in 33% new oak, the 1998 Puligny-Montrachet Les Perrieres reveals aromas of almonds and white flowers. This pure, deep, fresh, white fruit and mineral-flavored offering is medium-bodied, elegant, and well-delineated. Its long, clean, and flavorful finish displays hints of crisp, white pears. Projected maturity: 2002-2008.
