Domaine Etienne Sauzet Puligny Montrachet Champ Canet 1. Cru 2021

Domaine Etienne Sauzet Puligny-Montrachet Champ Canet 1er Cru 2021 is a striking expression of one of Puligny’s most admired Premier Cru sites, where power and finesse come together in classic Burgundy style. Made from Chardonnay and shaped by a terroir long associated with some of the Côte de Beaune’s most refined white wines, it combines depth, precision, and old-vine concentration in a highly elegant package.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows a poised, luminous profile with aromas of candied citrus, beeswax, white flowers, and stone fruit, lifted by a discreet hazelnut note that adds complexity. The palate is layered and focused, combining ripe citrus, pear, and peach with a firm chalky mineral core that gives the wine its tension, structure, and remarkable sense of balance. The texture is dense yet refined, with a subtle creamy richness from the dry extract that supports the wine without weighing it down. The finish is long and harmonious, with mineral, floral, and ripe-fruit nuances lingering beautifully. This is a wine with both immediate appeal and excellent aging potential, likely to develop greater depth and nuance over the next decade or more.

Production
Champ Canet is ideally situated on the slope between Puligny-Montrachet and Meursault, where limestone- and marl-rich soils contribute both aromatic complexity and vibrant minerality. The vineyard’s old vines bring impressive concentration and intensity, while the terroir naturally preserves the wine’s precision and drive. Vinification at Domaine Etienne Sauzet is typically geared toward preserving site expression, balance, and purity, resulting in a wine that feels both powerful and finely sculpted.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with refined dishes such as roast turbot, lobster, seared scallops, veal in a light cream sauce, or poultry with morels and other mushrooms. It is best served chilled, ideally around 10–12°C, and may benefit from a short decant if opened young to allow the aromatic layers to unfold more fully.
