The wine : The Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Combettes from Domaine Jacques Prieur embodies all the precision and elegance of the great Chardonnays of the Côte de Beaune. Located on an exceptional terroir at the border of Meursault, this premier cru reveals an intense and refined bouquet combining white-fleshed fruits, ripe citrus, white flowers, and delicately buttery and toasted notes resulting from perfectly controlled aging. The palate, ample and precise, is carried by a magnificent minerality that stretches the finish at great length.A great gastronomic wine, this Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru will pair perfectly with pan-seared scallops, roasted turbot, lobster, or Bresse chicken with cream. A great white Burgundy, profound and distinguished, which can also improve for several years in the cellar.
