Professional Reviews

Burghound

BH 95
"An admirably cool yet ripe nose offers up notes of white peach, honeysuckle, wet stone and soft spice nuance. The impressively-scaled, rich, full-bodied and palate staining broad-shouldered flavors brim with dry extract that does an excellent job of buffering the very firm acid spine shaping the wonderfully complex and lingering finish. This beauty is perhaps a bit more muscular than usual for a classic Combettes but the natural finesse is still present. Excellent."

Antonio Galloni

AG 94
"The 2017 Puligny-Montrachet Les Combettes 1er Cru has a crisp, taut bouquet of orchard fruit, touches of limestone and a very slight hint of grilled almond. The palate is well balanced with a fine bead of acidity that cuts a swath through the slightly honeyed fruit. There are hints of egg whites toward the finish, but also wonderful spicy notes. Long, persistent and quite sensual, this is a lovely Combettes. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting in Savigny-lès-Beaune." -Neal Martin

Robert Parker

RP 94
"Unwinding in the glass with aromas of green pear, peach, orange oil, white flowers and nutmeg, the 2017 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Combettes is full-bodied, ample and fleshy, with a rich core of concentrated fruit, lively acids and muscular structure, concluding with a long, saline finish. This is a powerful but reserved Combettes that's the most introspective of these Sauzet wines." -William Kelley
