"The 2005 Puligny-Montrachet Enseignieres takes the aromatic complexity and delineation of the 2004 and ramps it up a few notches: here stunning mineralite and tension reminiscent of the 2005 Corton-Charlemagne. The palate is precise on the entry with pitch-perfect acidity, linear at first but, then fanning out beautifully toward the long and tender finish. This represents one of the finest vintages I have tasted from this vineyard. Tasted November 2013. Here is another raft of wines from the most feted and yet still mysterious Cote de Beaune growers. Jean-Francois Coche’s reds are more elusive than his whites, but they can be astonishing."

A pinnacle of white Burgundy, producing taut, mineral and long-lived Chardonnay of great precision and finesse.
2005 in Burgundy is a legendary vintage from a near-ideal, dry growing season; both reds and whites are concentrated, structured and superbly balanced, with dense tannins and exceptional long-term aging potential.
The world's most versatile white grape, producing everything from steely Chablis to rich, oaked whites. Its neutrality makes it a mirror of terroir and winemaking, and the foundation of white Burgundy and Champagne.
