Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Perrières 2010 - Etienne Sauzet

Doveroso dedicare uno spazio esclusivo a questo autentico capolavoro di Etienne Sauzet proveniente da una parcella di 0,48 ha nel Perrières (8,41 ha in totale). Bouquet dai mille profumi, pronunciati tutti con estrema precisione e senza alzare la voce. Pietra spaccata, agrumi, erba limoncina, gerbera, pepe bianco e zenzero per un sorso sconvolgente e di gigantesca tensione gustativa, dritto e completo - anche in struttura - nel suo sviluppo, con impronta finale paragonabile alle vibrazioni provenienti dall'eco del Big Bang

Careful not to drink all by myself. It seems that I like rocks up my nose.

A rich and concentrated shade of yellow. Citrus nose, especially lemon, and nutty. Not exactly a beautiful and elegant version of PM, but rather bolsterous. Would have guessed a Meursault. Searing acidity... a bit too much for me. Prefer the Jacques Carillon!

Matchstick reduction followed by white flower, citrus fragrance; great acidity and firing on all cylinders. Thought this would be premoxed; far from it. Could go another 5 yrs. From magnum

Lemon gold color. Very stony and mineral nose, backed by citrus fruit. Sharp acidity, almost tart on par with what I expect from a Perrieres. This feels a little backward and I would recommend holding if it wasn’t for premox risks. Long finish.
