Domaine Etienne Sauzet Batard Montrachet Grand Cru 2022

Domaine Etienne Sauzet Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru 2022 is a striking expression of one of Burgundy’s most revered white wine terroirs. It combines generous power with precision and elegance, showing the kind of depth and aromatic richness that has made Bâtard-Montrachet a benchmark for grand cru Chardonnay.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, this is a wine of impressive volume and concentration, with a luminous golden hue that hints at its richness. The nose opens with musky peach, white flowers, toasted nuts, a touch of mint, and a subtle smoky edge, creating a layered and complex bouquet. On the palate, it is broad, intense, and texturally opulent, yet kept in check by vibrant acidity and a mineral backbone. Ripe fruit, toast, delicate spice, and gentle oak notes of oatmeal and vanilla unfold in a harmonious, refined way. This is a wine built for the long haul and should evolve beautifully over the next two decades or more.

Production
Bâtard-Montrachet lies in the heart of Burgundy’s Côte de Beaune, where the clay-limestone soils and exceptional exposition help produce Chardonnay of remarkable depth and finesse. Domaine Etienne Sauzet is known for working with great precision in the vineyard and cellar, allowing the character of the site and vintage to shine through. The 2022 vintage brings a notably generous and expressive profile, balanced by the domaine’s signature sense of structure and purity.

Food & Serving
This Grand Cru is a superb match for refined dishes such as lobster, scallops, turbot, roast chicken with cream sauce, or poultry with morels and truffle. It should be served cool but not too cold, ideally around 12–14°C, to allow the full aromatic complexity to emerge. Decanting is recommended when young, especially if served soon after release, to help the wine open gradually and show its full range of nuance.

Producer
Domaine Etienne Sauzet is one of Puligny-Montrachet’s most respected producers, with a long-standing reputation for crafting some of Burgundy’s most elegant and terroir-driven white wines. The domaine has become particularly admired for its precise, age-worthy Chardonnay from premier and grand cru sites. Over the years, it has earned a place among the elite estates of the region, recognized for purity, balance, and consistently outstanding quality.
