Puligny Montrachet is a small village on Burgundy's salubrious Cotes de Beaune. Within the defined environs of Puligny's auspicious vineyards are seventeen elite climats classified as Premier Cru. One of the most distinguished Chardonnay sites in the world, a quarter of Champ Canet belongs to Domaine Sauzet, a single precious hectare of vine yielding a mere 625 cases. The white wines of Puligny Montrachet are the most famous and widely acclaimed Chardonnay in the world. The quality of fruit is ultimately determined by microclimate and terroir, clays, siliceous sands and lime soils. Domaine Etienne Sauzet is made up of twenty six acres, much of it at the heart of the premier crus vineyards. Gerard Boudot places a priority on keeping yields low, picking early and including only the finest grapes. Chardonnay is vinified at 18C to 22C in a selection of new and seasoned Troncais and Allier French oak barriques. The wines complete malolactic and remain in barrel for eleven months through a course of battonage on gross lees before transfer to tank for a term of six months on fine lees.
TASTING NOTESDeep straw yellow. Deliciously rich and ripe nose with honey characters and scents of tropical fruit, flowers and mineral, toffee and white peach. Velvety textured palate showing flavours of preserved lemons and brioche, toastyness, butter and meal. |
