The 2009 Puligny-Montrachet Combettes (from the Meursault side) comes across as quite closed at first. This is rather inward, but then begins to blossom in the glass over time. Still, this is relatively taut style for the year, with plenty of energy and drive. I can see the Combettes meriting a higher score if it fleshes out with further bottle age.
This ripe and juicy white delivers flavors of apple, peach and quince. Features the requisite acidity to stay focused and fresh, but just a touch hot on the finish.
