Patrick Piuze
Originally from Montreal, Patrick Piuze’s wine journey started when he was just 18 and met Marc Chapoutier. The great Rhône luminary obviously made an impression on young Patrick, because after working briefly in a wine bar in Canada he took the personal gamble to de-camp to Burgundy to pursue his passion for wine-making (in 2000). Piuze managed to land a position at Olivier Leflaive and worked also at Verget, before his own micro négociant business in Chablis in 2008.
Patrick Piuze is passionate about Chablis’ special terroir and sources grapes from the best terroirs and the most meticulous growers. Patrick Piuze’s knowledge of Chablis’ terroirs runs deep, and his wines are pure expressions of Chardonnay. He is widely praised for achieving a balance between Chablis’ characteristic minerality and Chardonnay’s fleshy fruit.

Wine Advocate (92)The 2018 Chablis 1er Cru Vaillons Les Minots is showing very well, mingling aromas of crisp Anjou pear and green apple with scents of white flowers, marzipan and fresh stone fruits. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, ample and satiny, with chewy structuring extract, good precision and a stony finish. |

Wine Advocate (91)Piuze's new 2022 Chablis La Butte "O" comes from the lieu-dit Butteaux but outside the confines of the premier cru. It's an attractive effort redolent of pear, toasted nuts, bee pollen, white flowers and youthful reduction. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and incisive, with racy acids and a long mineral finish, it's a fine addition to the range. |

Vinous (91-93)The 2020 Chablis Blanchot Grand Cru has a much more expressive nose than the Bougros at this stage, offering lifted lime flower and orange blossom scents, though perhaps there is less mineralité at the moment. The palate is well balanced with fine acidity, showing just a little creaminess. Almond and chamomile notes appear toward the finish. Give this 3–4 years in bottle. |

Vinous (94)The 2019 Chablis Les Clos Grand Cru has a beautifully defined bouquet of quince, marmalade and light honeysuckle aromas. The palate is tightly wound, with crisp acidity, and very linear. The saline finish lingers in the mouth. Good potential. |

Vinous (90-92)The 2020 Chablis Les Clos Grand Cru is very reduced on the nose, although there seems to be good concentration here and Piuze commented that this is nothing unusual. The palate is well balanced, quite primal, rich and slightly honeyed, leading to a powerful finish where I am just seeking a little more delineation. Let’s see how this turns out in bottle. |
