Silky yet tightly wound, the 2021 Louis Jadot Puligny-Montrachet Clos de la Garenne Premier Cru Duc de Magenta layers crisp green apple and ripe stone fruit over a spine of cool, stony tension and gentle smoke. There’s a floral lift and fine concentration in mid-palate, but the real class shows in the long, precise, almost understated finish that clearly promises more complexity with time in bottle.

Louis Jadot’s Puligny‑Montrachet Premier Cru “Clos de la Garenne” (Domaine Duc de Magenta) is a chardonnay from a tiny, walled parcel of very old vines in mid‑slope Puligny, farmed in partnership with the Magenta family. Vinified in a traditional style with partial malolactic and élevage in oak, it marries Puligny’s chalky minerality and bright citrus/white‑flower aromas with concentrated stone‑fruit, almond and subtle toasty notes, yielding a precisely textured, ageworthy premier cru.
