Nice Burgundy, pretty Burgundy

Rather a nice magnum drank with our lovely neighbours.

Puligny-Montrachet Premier Cru les Folatieres 2002, Gerard Chavy et fils en magnum

This has a pretty nose of melon, lemon and creamy minerality. This smells like it has seen very little new oak and it is all the better for that. It has a very light-bodied palate with plenty of fruit and minerality and a good back-bone of acidity. This is really quite a pretty bottle of white Burgundy, we all enjoyed it very much.
