Domaine Henri Prudhon & Fils Description

As the name implies, this parcel of approximately ¾ of an hectare sits on a hillside overlooking the neighboring hamlet of Gamay (directly east of Saint Aubin and a neighbor to Puligny). The vineyard is a mix of 20 year old and 60 year old vines. The soils are classic clay and limestone and the vineyards face southwest. As with the other 1er Cru whites, this wine ages in barrel (20% new oak) for 12 months before bottling. The “Sur Gamay” yields a complex wine that often requires several years to express its full character marked by notes of honey and minerals.

Burghound: 92 Points

This is aromatically similar to the Perrières with just a touch more citrus influence. There is though more volume and richness to the bigger-bodied, dense and even more powerful flavors that coat the palate with sappy dry extract that also buffers the moderately firm acid spine supporting the clean, dry and youthfully austere finale. This is less refined but offers both slightly better depth and persistence.
