Roux Père & Fils - Puligny-Montrachet 2023 (750ml) The Spanish Wine Importers LLCThis wine has a bright gold color with greenish highlights, becoming more intense with age. The bouquet brings together hawthorn blossoms, ripe grapes, marzipan, hazelnut, amber, lemon grass, and green apple. Milky (butter, hot croissant) and mineral aromas (flint) are commonplace, as is honey. Body and bouquet blend into a subtle harmony, this wine combines grace with a well defined character and a remarkable concentration.
