SAUZET PULIGNY MONTRACHET 1ER CRU "SOUS LE PUITS" 2024 750ML

Domaine Étienne Sauzet Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru “Sous le Puits” 2024

A precise, elegant and beautifully layered Premier Cru Chardonnay from Puligny-Montrachet. Sous le Puits is known for producing wines with a compelling combination of limestone minerality, floral elegance, citrus freshness and refined texture.

The 2024 vintage is particularly appealing for its freshness and precision, making this a wine that emphasizes terroir rather than sheer richness.

Tasting profile

The nose is expressive and refined, with lemon, green apple, pear and white peach, followed by delicate aromas of acacia, white flowers, citrus zest and fresh almond. With air, subtle chalk, wet stone and gentle spice emerge.

On the palate, it is silky and concentrated, with a lovely balance between ripe orchard fruit and energetic acidity. Fine limestone minerality gives the wine structure and definition, while a subtle creamy texture adds depth.

The finish is long, dry and saline, with lingering citrus, almond and chalky mineral notes.
