Tasted blind, the 2015 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Combettes is exceptional, unfolding in the glass with a classy bouquet of hazelnut cream, ripe lemon and pear. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, layered and concentrated, with chewy extract and considerable depth at the core, blanched by bright, tangy acids. This was a terrific showing for Sauzet.
Drink Date: 2020 - 2035

About this wine
Côte de Beaune
The Côte de Beaune is a prestigious wine region that stretches southwest from the town of Beaune in Burgundy and continues along the Côte d'Or. The Côte de Beaune is particularly known for its excellent white wines, made primarily from the Chardonnay grape. Some of the most famous white wines come from areas such as Puligny-Montrachet, Chassagne-Montrachet and Meursault, but although white wines predominate, red wines are also produced in the Côte de Beaune. Pinot Noir is the main grape, and some of the most recognized red wines come from areas such as Volnay, Pommard and Beaune. The Côte de Beaune is known for producing wines of high quality and prestige, and many of the area's wines are considered some of the best representatives of the Bourgogne style.
