2017 Domaine Etienne Sauzet Puligny Montrachet Les Combettes Premier Cru

Other Reviews....
An admirably cool yet ripe nose offers up notes of white peach, honeysuckle, wet stone and soft spice nuance. The impressively-scaled, rich, full-bodied and palate staining broad-shouldered flavors brim with dry extract that does an excellent job of buffering the very firm acid spine shaping the wonderfully complex and lingering finish. This beauty is perhaps a bit more muscular than usual for a classic Combettes but the natural finesse is still present. Excellent.

Allen Meadows - Burghound

Unwinding in the glass with aromas of green pear, peach, orange oil, white flowers and nutmeg, the 2017 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Combettes is full-bodied, ample and fleshy, with a rich core of concentrated fruit, lively acids and muscular structure, concluding with a long, saline finish. This is a powerful but reserved Combettes that's the most introspective of these Sauzet wines.

Bright, light yellow. More complex and soil-driven on the nose than the Champ-Canet, hinting at stone fruits, iodiney minerality and hazelnut. Lovely plush, seamless wine with a sexy sweetness to its flavors of peach, flowers and minerals. There's an element of creaminess here that's nicely supported by harmonious acidity and minerality. Finishes with subtly, building spicy length and very good grip.
