Medium burnt straw, quite big legs. Slightly stale herbal nose, green fruit and caramel beneath. Medium/light-bodied, slightly empty after the Sauzet. Fresh green herbal notes. Spicy fresh finish but no great length. 3

Lighter still some good fruit, honied again mineral nose, oak more prominent very nice spicy oak. A bit of funk, some cork (not tca). At a nice place right now. Drying finish, a bit bitter.

(Sauzet Etienne Puligny-Montrachet Combettes) Younger yellow colour vs the 1990 and just a little hazy. Very different nose, high-toned over melon. HIgh-toned fruit in the mouth too. Similar to the first wine as this is quite constrained and tight in the palate but yet again with very good length. A good performance for the vintage and certainly no rush to drink.
