"Poached pear and talcum powder aromas can be discerned in the nose of the 2002 Puligny-Montrachet Clos de La Garenne Duc de Magenta. This gorgeous, medium to full-bodied wine expands on the palate, revealing a deep, intense concentration. It is powerful, crammed with poached pears, spices, and ginger. This fleshy, well-balanced, dense, exceptionally ripe wine possesses an impressively long finish filled with creamy candied apples."
