ETIENNE SAUZET PULIGNY MONTRACHET 1ER CRU COMBETTES 2020 RP94

RP 94

Note: from a 1 ha parcel of 50+ year old vines that see 40% new wood. Firm reduction completely overshadows the fruit. Otherwise, there is excellent volume to the seductively textured medium weight flavors that exude plenty of minerality that adds lift to the succulent, balanced and gorgeously persistent bitter lemon-tinged finish that goes on and on. This isn't quite as concentrated as the Folatières but it's finer and stunningly long. This may not be the best Sauzet Combettes ever but in time, it should be in the conversation, it's that good. *Burghound Sweet Spot Outstanding
