Domaine Etienne Sauzet Puligny Montrachet La Garenne 1. Cru 2022

Domaine Etienne Sauzet Puligny-Montrachet La Garenne 1er Cru 2022 is a refined expression of one of Puligny’s cooler, higher-altitude premier cru sites, where brightness, minerality, and aromatic precision come together beautifully. Crafted from Chardonnay and shaped by Sauzet’s hallmark purity, this is a wine that captures both the elegance of the site and the pedigree of one of Burgundy’s most respected domaines.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows a poised, luminous character with a clean, inviting profile. The nose opens with pear, green apple, and citrus, lifted by hints of mint and a subtle touch of nutmeg that adds delicacy and intrigue. The palate is medium to full-bodied, with a satiny texture and a striking mineral drive that reflects the stony soils of La Garenne. Flavours of white peach, lime, and a faintly creamy nuance are kept taut by vivid acidity, giving the wine a linear, energetic feel. The finish is long, chalky, and elegant, with citrus and spice lingering over a distinctly mineral backdrop. This 2022 has excellent ageing potential and should gain extra depth and complexity over time.

Production
La Garenne is a high-lying premier cru site in Puligny-Montrachet, prized for its cooler exposition and stone-rich soils that naturally favour freshness, tension, and finesse. The 2022 vintage was vinified with the aim of preserving the vineyard’s precise fruit character and mineral edge, resulting in a wine that feels both concentrated and beautifully lifted.

Food & Serving
This wine is a superb match for refined dishes such as lobster, scallops, Dover sole, roast chicken with herbs, or creamy risotto with mushrooms. Serve it at around 10–12°C, and consider brief decanting if you want to encourage the aromatics to open up, especially when enjoyed young.
