Notes:
By John GilmanView From the Cellar (Nov/Dec '11)
(Puligny-Montrachet Champs Canet- Domaine Sauzet) Monsieur Boudots sixty year-old vines in Champs Canet produced absolutely tiny berries in 2010- the size of the end of ones pinky according to Monsieur Boudot- and yields were down here by forty percent in this vintage. However, the small production is made up a bit by absolutely superb quality, as the wine offers up a stunningly pure and complex nose of lemon blossoms, apple, white peach, a great base of terres blanches soil tones, citrus oils and vanillin oak. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, pure and gorgeously complex, with ripe acids, superb focus and balance and brilliant length and grip on the very intensely flavored finish. The low yields here have again given the wine an almost silky mid-palate texture that is so rare and exciting! The Champs Canet is a tad less reserved than the superb Referts, but every bit as stunning. (Drink between 2018-2040)94+point
