2022 Domaine Etienne Sauzet Puligny-Montrachet Premier Cru 'Champ-Canet'

A benchmark Puligny-Montrachet Premier Cru from one of Burgundy’s most admired domaines, the 2022 Domaine Etienne Sauzet Champ-Canet combines precision, finesse, and unmistakable village character. Champ-Canet is prized for wines that balance refinement with depth, offering a vivid expression of Puligny’s chalky elegance and the concentration of a strong vintage.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it typically shows a bright golden hue with a refined, luminous edge. The nose is poised and complex, with aromas of white flowers, citrus zest, pear, subtle stone fruit, crushed nuts, and a distinctive mineral lift. On the palate, expect a wine that is both graceful and layered, with a silky texture, fine acidity, and a long, saline finish. 2022’s generous fruit profile should give it added immediacy, while the structure and site-driven minerality suggest excellent aging potential over the next 8–15 years, and likely longer in a well-kept cellar.

Production
Champ-Canet lies in Puligny-Montrachet, where limestone-rich soils and excellent drainage help produce wines of tension, purity, and elegance. Domaine Etienne Sauzet is known for careful vineyard work and harvesting at optimal ripeness, with fruit selected parcel by parcel to preserve nuance and balance. Vinification is traditionally restrained to showcase terroir, with gentle pressing, controlled fermentation, and maturation in oak barrels to build texture without masking the wine’s precision. The result is a Premier Cru that emphasizes site expression, freshness, and layered complexity.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with elegant dishes such as lobster, scallops, roast chicken with herbs, turbot, veal in a light cream sauce, or fine mushroom risotto. Serve chilled, ideally around 10–12°C, to highlight its aromatics and structure. Decanting is optional, but a short decant can help open the wine in its youth.

Producer
Domaine Etienne Sauzet is one of Puligny-Montrachet’s most respected names, with a long-standing reputation for producing finely balanced, terroir-driven white Burgundy. Founded in the early 20th century and now regarded as a reference point for the appellation, the domaine is admired for its precision, consistency, and classic style. Its wines are especially prized for their ability to reflect site differences with clarity and elegance.
