Yellow core with clear rim. The nose was extremely profound and tightly wound with med + intensity and med + complexity. Driven by ripe tropical fruit, ripe apples, white flowers, hazelnuts, spice, and rich notes. The palate was taught and well structured. Med + complexity on the palate with some corn notes. Great balance and fantastic length. This wine will keep getting better. #etiennesauzet #pulignymontrachet #premiercru #chardonnay #burgundy #cotedebeaune #ctbucklinwine
