La robe est très claire
Le nez est beau dominé par les fleurs blanches poires une pointe ananas
Très élégant
La bouche est bien fraîche même pour un 1/2 sec, de la nervosité
Tout en finesse, c'est très élégant subtil équilibre
Tout est en place
Le 1/2 sec s'exprime sur la fin bouche qui est douce et qui termine sur l'ananas
Honnêtement c'est une belle bouteille, le millésime y est pour quelque chose
Les dernières bouteilles de chez Foreau m'avait laissé un peu dubitatif voire déçu
Certes ça manque de vie, de vibration. Le côté vin trop propre est un peu dommage
En 1/2 ça donne un beau de vin de gastronomie

First nose brings fresh a dark fruit introduction which after first taste is tightly rounded with a beautiful balance of graphite, bullwhip leather and a bit of cocoa. We always love our 2005 Medoc crop and this sample us an extremely pleasant drinking bottle. The balance is what strikes me most here, spice box Jerry is in the house as well, but every flavor has a role all brought together in a smooth unity. I will rate a 91 at a great $20 pricepoint. — 11 years ago

Kind of like a Gose but more flavorful and richer. I love it. "Cidery but with more guts", was my first comment. — 9 years ago
@Ron R Speaking of tipping the scales; this is 16.2%. Smokey, earthy, brooding and offering loads of dark fruits, framed by dense yet clever tannins, toasty oak and enough acidity to let the unity fold nicely. Not my preferred style, but quality wise very impressive. — 9 years ago

2 years ago this was a hot disjointed mess. Now it is a borderline masterpiece. The tannins have resolved and unity reigns. Red fruit, vanilla, spice box. Lovely. I'm not sure if Nic Allen or Luc Morlet is the winemaker but kudos to whomever crafted this. — 11 years ago

Domaine Jean Chartron established in 1859 owns 13 hectares of vineyards - 16 appellations - 9 of which being in Puligny-Montrachet. The soil is a mixture of clay siliceous sand and lime components. 40 years the average age of the vines. Hand harvesting, neither herbicides, nor chemical pesticides are used in the vineyards. Behind the alchemical balance of the wine aging (élevage) in the woods, at the source of the new oak barrels there's always Allier and Vosges.
Even though 2011 in Burgundy's one of the most premature vintage in 300 years, I must admit that this bottle of the monopole Clos de la Pucelle was astonishingly crisp, persisten texture, a solid core of broom in bloom blowing up in your mouth, a shiny flow of mineral essence. Sourness and honey they were so well blended to spread the unity of opposites all over the go-between glass among you the others around and the wine.. though one bottle was a too much little thing! http://www.bourgogne-chartron.com/ — 10 years ago
2012 - Delicious with a vibration of peaking interest. Has an essence of a lightly hopped finish. Having tasted all of Bordelet's different Apple and pear cuvees I must say this is the least profound to me, or rather on the conventional side. Nonetheless this is delicious and I would suggest that if one is going on the journey to get all the cuvees and drink them all at once so you know what it is you are doing. This one is so casual is doesn't matter where you are or what you are doing it will fit nicely, guaranteed. — 11 years ago
