Domaine Etienne Sauzet Batard Montrachet Grand Cru 2021

Domaine Etienne Sauzet Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru 2021 is a benchmark white Burgundy, combining power, precision, and remarkable finesse. From one of the Côte de Beaune’s most celebrated Grand Cru sites, it offers the depth and complexity collectors seek, while remaining beautifully defined and beautifully composed.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows a luminous golden hue with impressive concentration. The nose is layered and expressive, unfolding with peach, apricot, citrus peel, blossom honey, mineral notes, and subtle hints of vanilla and brioche. The palate is richly textured and creamy, yet lifted by vibrant acidity and a chalky, limestone-driven freshness. Mature stone fruit and citrus are matched by a cool, sculpted mineral core, giving the wine both breadth and precision. The finish is long, refined, and persistent, with excellent aging potential; this is a Grand Cru that should develop gracefully over many years.

Production
Produced from Chardonnay grown in the prestigious Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru vineyard in Burgundy, where limestone-rich soils and an exceptional exposed terroir contribute to the wine’s depth, tension, and mineral character. Domaine Etienne Sauzet is known for its meticulous vineyard work and careful harvesting, ensuring optimal ripeness while preserving freshness and definition. Vinification is carried out with a focus on purity and balance, allowing the character of the site to shine through in the finished wine.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with lobster, scallops, fine white fish, poultry in cream sauce, and elegant dishes with truffle or morel mushrooms. Serve lightly chilled, ideally around 12–14°C, and consider decanting for 30–60 minutes when young to help the wine open up and reveal its full aromatic complexity.
