Ettiene Sauzet Puligny Montrachet

This comes from a half-moon of twelve plots around the village, with the vines called Les Meix, just uphill from Domaine Sauzet, representing about 30% of the cuvée. Most of the blend comes from the Chassagne-Montrachet side, where deep soils give broad wines.Three plots are on the pebble-rich Meursault side. The wine is entirely barrel-fermented, with a discreet part being new. This wine brings together the best of “village level” Puligny-Montrachet, and indeed is text-book Puligny at its purest and most vibrant. Colour is pale golden, aromas open and generous. The wine shows classic fruitiness, with harmonious, silky, fresh length (for drinking 2024-2028+).
