Lot #448. Etienne Sauzet Montrachet 2007

Description: Consists of 3 Bottles, 0.75L
Score: 97 AM.
"This is ever-so-slightly riper and less restrained aromatically than the Chevalier with a densely fruited nose offering lightly spiced pear, white peach, lemon-lime and a hint of honeysuckle plus a touch of clove and anise that merge seamlessly into concentrated, powerful and weighty flavors that are not massive but they are focused, well-muscled and impressively scaled all the same and culminate in a superbly complex and deep finish that reminds me a lot of the 2002 version as it seems to come in wave after palate drenching wave. This is not as elegant and pure as the Chevalier but it somehow manages to deliver yet another dimension. In sum, an absolute knockout. Amazingly, this rivals the '93 as the best Montrachet Sauzet has ever made, and anyone who has tasted a well-stored bottle knows that is high praise." Burghound.com, Jul 01, 2009
Provenance: The Tower Cellar
Notes: 1 nicked, lightly scuffed, 2 lightly bin soiled labels.
