Etienne Sauzet Puligny Montrachet

$127.99

The history of the domaine dates to the beginning of the 20th century, when Etienne Sauzet inherited and bought several plots of vines in the village of Puligny-Montrachet. The vines passed through the family to Jeanine Boillot, Sauzet’s granddaughter. Jeanine and her husband, Gérard Boudot, managed the domaine, making many modernizations, including improved vinification techniques and biodynamic farming. Today, the domaine has been passed to their daughter Emilie and her husband, Benoît Riffault, who continue to produce white wines that are among the most sought-after in all of Burgundy. After four generations, Sauzet is still synonymous with high-quality, elegant Burgundian Chardonnay.

"Pleasantly ripe apple and floral notes. There is not too much tension, but the acidity is not really lacking - the wine is refreshing but not brisk. Well done. This is a large cuvée - 12 parcels spread over seven lieux-dits. The grapes were picked on the 22nd August at pH 3.2. Lightly crushed and settled, then fermented in cask " 94 Points Decanter
