🏰 Etienne Sauzet's Puligny Montrachet Les Combettes 1er Cru 2023 emerges from a 【Burgundy vintage that was the hottest on record, yielding generous volumes of ripe fruit with lively, racy acidity】. White wines from 2023 are described as delicious and mostly accessible early, with Chardonnay performing particularly well due to higher yields. Expect a wine of elegance and minerality, with notes of white flowers, citrus, green apple, and a subtle hint of oak, culminating in a long, refined finish.
🍴 This Premier Cru Puligny Montrachet pairs beautifully with luxurious dishes like grilled lobster with lemon butter, pan-seared scallops with ceps, or Bresse chicken in cream sauce. It also complements lighter poultry dishes, creamy pasta, and lightly cooked salmon. For cheese, a 24-month aged Comté is an excellent match.
🥂 An exquisite choice for a celebratory meal, a special occasion, or for those who appreciate the finesse of young, high-quality white Burgundy.
BACKGROUND
Etienne Sauzet is an estate based in Puligny-Montrachet, France, making some of the most sought-after Chardonnay wines in Burgundy.
