Sauzet's wines are prized for their elegance at village level and for their extra weight and concentration at Premier and Grand Cru level. The portfolio includes leading examples of Chevalier-Montrachet, Le Montrachet and Puligny-Montrachet Premier Cru Champs Gain. The domaine is made up of 15 hectares (37 ac) of estate vineyards split between the communes of Puligny-Montrachet, Cormot-le-Grand and Chassagne-Montrachet with small amounts of fruit externally sourced. The grapes are fermented in oak and aged in barrel for around a year – premier crus see up to 33-percent new oak, while grand crus get 40-percent. After barrel aging, the wines are racked into tanks for another six months on lees. Etienne Sauzet was established at the forefront of Puligny-Montrachet production by Etienne Sauzet himself (1903-1975). His 12 hectare (30 ac) estate was taken over by his son-in-law Gérard Boudot, although in 1991 Boudot's cousin Jean-Marc Boillot took out his share of vineyards, requiring Boudot and his family to make additional acquisitions to bring the property back to its current size.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2024-02-06T12:30:33-05:00","created_at":"2024-02-02T18:13:23-05:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_France","NK310124","Other_Wine","Producer_Etienne Sauzet","Region_Cote de Beaune","Source_Hedonism0124","Type_White Wine","Varietal_Chardonnay"],"price":85295,"price_min":85295,"price_max":85295,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":44264897446026,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":null,"requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2015 | Etienne Sauzet | Champ Canet","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":85295,"weight":12247,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":null,"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/30_5ab2c43d-686b-4c3c-a5dc-0076d3655034.jpg?v=1706915629"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/30_5ab2c43d-686b-4c3c-a5dc-0076d3655034.jpg?v=1706915629","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2015 | Etienne Sauzet | Champ Canet at CaskCartel.com","id":26056376254602,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.6,"height":1000,"width":600,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/30_5ab2c43d-686b-4c3c-a5dc-0076d3655034.jpg?v=1706915629"},"aspect_ratio":0.6,"height":1000,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/30_5ab2c43d-686b-4c3c-a5dc-0076d3655034.jpg?v=1706915629","width":600}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eWhite Wine: 2015 | Etienne Sauzet | Champ Canet\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVery pale bright yellow.
