SAUZET PULIGNY MONTRACHET 1ER CRU "CHAMP GAIN" 2024 750ML

Domaine Étienne Sauzet Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru “Champ Gain” 2024

A precise, elegant and intensely mineral Premier Cru Chardonnay from Puligny-Montrachet. Champ Gain is known for producing wines with freshness, tension, floral character and pronounced limestone minerality, making it an excellent expression of Puligny’s more refined side.

The 2024 shows a lovely balance between ripe Chardonnay fruit and energetic acidity. The nose reveals lemon, green apple, pear and white peach, layered with white flowers, acacia, citrus zest and subtle almond. On the palate, it is crisp, focused and finely textured, with vibrant acidity and a strong chalky-mineral backbone.

As the wine opens, subtle notes of wet stone, hazelnut and gentle spice add complexity. The finish is long, dry, saline and beautifully mineral.
