The 2022 Puligny-Montrachet Corvées des Vignes has quite a backward bouquet that demands coaxing from the glass: wax resin lanolin and light red apple scents. The palate is where its energy really lies. It has fine tension and lovely texture with yellow plum and stem ginger. It is rather linear toward the finish which seems very precise. Great salinity here. Excellent. (Drink between 2026-2040)
Suave and charming the 2022 Puligny-Montrachet Corvée des Vignes bursts with aromas of pear apple blossom white peach and almond paste. Medium to full-bodied glossy and enveloping with an open core of pretty succulent fruit girdled by racy acids it will drink well from release. In the August 2021 Week 2 Issue of The Wine Advocate I devoted a feature to the wines and work of Jean-Marc Vincent so I direct readers to that piece rather than attempt to reprise all its minutiae here. High-density plantings of massal selections high canopies that are either hedged late or interwoven by hand soils cultivated using small caterpillar-tracked engines instead of tractors long macerations with significant percentages of whole bunches and long élevage on the lees?these are just some of the pieces of the puzzle. If Jean-Marc's 2020s set a new benchmark for contemporary Santenay his 2022s come close to rivaling them: complex textural whites of substance and structure and serious sapid reds that will reward patience.
