Etienne Sauzet owns and manages vineyard plots in some of the most esteemed terroirs in Puligny-Montrachet and neighbouring appellations. The Domaine was founded in the early 20th century by Etienne Sauzet and has been managed by several generations of the Sauzet family. The portfolio includes this Champ Canet, a 5.6-hectare climat that lies on the midslope of the Côte d`Or escarpment. The 2010 growing season in Burgundy was characterized by favourable weather conditions, resulting in wines with great balance and complexity. The region experienced a cool summer with moderate temperatures, allowing the grapes to ripen slowly and develop optimal flavours while retaining good acidity.

Vinous
Pale bright yellow. Complex nose melds mirabelle, yellow peach, citrus fruits and hazelnut. Rich, seamless and concentrated, conveying a strong floral character and an impression of strong extract. Wonderfully thick for the year but with excellent energy. This seamless, silky wine spreads out to saturate the palate and lingers impressively on the aftertaste. These vines were 100% affected by millerandage in 2010 (the crop level was cut to 25 hectoliters per hectare), noted Boudot, adding that this wine is 13.5% alcohol without chaptalization.Stephen Tanzer1st September 2012
