If the Puligny Les Perrieres is about finesse Les Combettes is about mouthfeel. The vineyard is on the border of Meursault - directly across from Meursault 1er Cru Les Charmes and Perrieres. And there are some similarities. Jasper Morris MW says "it shares with its neighbours the plumpness of top Meursault without losing the refinement and mineral elegance of great Puligny".
Jomain's 2016 is open and quite generous. In addition to the minerality and flowers there is a little (Meursault) honeycomb. It is rounder and fuller, but never losing its acid drive. In the mouth it has more weight but is certainly not heavy. Powerful and long it is a great contrast to Perrieres elegance.

Hmm not the largest nose, but a very attractive one - a vibration of minerality here. More relaxed, with a wider panaorama of flavour that melts over the palate - still plenty of rocks in this, very interesting flavour and the easist to appreciate. Delicious.
