Description
Domaine Etienne Sauzet Puligny-Montrachet Les Combettes 1er Cru 2021 is a beautifully poised white Burgundy that captures both the precision of Puligny and the broader, more generous character of this prized vineyard. Sourced from Les Combettes, a site bordering Meursault, it offers a compelling balance of mineral tension, creamy fruit, and refined complexity that has long made the domaine one of the benchmark names in the region.
Tasting Notes
In the glass, the wine shows a luminous, pale gold hue. The nose is layered and finely detailed, unfolding with candied citrus, beeswax, white flowers, stone fruit, and a subtle hazelnut note.
The palate is medium to full-bodied, with ripe citrus, pear, and stone fruit framed by a firm, chalky structure and a distinctly mineral core. Its texture is concentrated yet elegant, with a long, precise finish and the depth to evolve gracefully over the coming years.
Production
Les Combettes sits on the border of Meursault, and that position is reflected in the wine’s style: Puligny’s steely minerality is softened by a rounder, more textured fruit profile. The vineyard’s marl and clay soils contribute both structure and aromatic depth, while careful harvest selection and thoughtful vinification preserve the wine’s purity, tension, and layered character.
Food & Serving
This is an excellent match for refined dishes such as roasted chicken, lobster, scallops, turbot, or creamy risotto, as well as mushroom-based preparations and mature hard cheeses. Serve chilled, ideally around 10–12°C, and consider decanting for 20–30 minutes if drinking young to help раскры the wine’s aromatics and texture.
