Overall impression is hindered from a cold but overall from what I can gather it is what I have come to expect from Sauzet with a rich, toasty nose, then a palate with cut, verve and minerality with a long finish. #pulignymontrachet #sauzet #chardonnayfromthebestplaceonearth

Proving yet again why Chardonnay does not get much better than from Burgundy! A fine example of PM showing really well with great fruit purity, transparency, and minerality. Classic nose and palate but with a little more oomph from the 09 vintage. #pulignymontrachet #sauzet #burgundy
