Note di degustazione
Pale, bright green-yellow. Musky peach, spices and truffle on the nose. Vivacious and energetic on the palate, with racy acidity framing the mineral and spice flavors. Finishes taut and long. Like a denser, more concentrated version of the 2008 village wine but in need of two or three years of patience to expand in the bottle.

The Sauzet 2010 Puligny-Montrachet is totally classy and refined. There is a bit of a honeyed quality that gives the Puligny considerable textural richness and viscosity for a village level wine. A soft, seamless finish rounds things out in style. This is a gorgeous showing from Sauzet.

A soft, seamless finish rounds things out in style. This is a gorgeous showing from Sauzet. Anticipated maturity: 2012+. I have to admit I was a bit perplexed by these 2010s from Sauzet. A number of wines were massively reduced and/or heavily sulfured to a degree I did not encounter at any other property I visited. The best selections in the lineup are quite strong, which suggests some of those elements may dissipate over time as the wines integrate, but at the same time, I can only report what is in the glass, and the reality is that some of the wines in this lineup are very awkward at this stage. I suggest readers taste the Sauzet 2010s before making any major commitments. The 2010 harvest started on September 17th. Yields were closer to normal in the village wines, but down by as much as 35% in the premier and grand crus. The wines spent 12 months in oak, 25-35% new for the premier crus, and 35% new for the grand crus, followed by six months in tank. Importer: Vineyard Brands, Birmingham, AL; tel. (205) 980-8802
