Bouton Gilles

2009 Bouton Gilles Puligny-Montrachet La Garenne

By billn on April 10, 2011

The nose shows complex if slightly dense aromas. Again there’s fine freshness for the vintage – length too. More mineral flavours slowly reveal themselves though to be honest it doesn’t seem such a big jump from the previous wines – it’s understatedly impressive length not-withstanding.

Medium-plus colour. A dark note of coal blends with the fruit. The tannins seem squashable making platelets instead of grains – very good acidity releases mouth-watering fruit flavours. The fruit is quite in the ascendant right now.

(Red) Dark, precise, lovely aromas – yum. Also in the mouth there’s lots of interest; grainy tannins, flavour of agrumes – long lasting and mouth-watering. Another wine on the shopping list!

2009 Bouton Gilles Blagny Sous Le Puits

Certainly a lesser-spotted wine – but with great merit – to the producer too for not ripping out the vines for more profit; chardonnay equals Puligny-Montrachet here! Very fine red fruit aromas. Full and round. A good concentration of flavour – which seems to keep growing. Super-fine and lovely!
