AboutDomaine Etienne Sauzet
Domaine Etienne Sauzet began in the first half of the twentieth century, when Etienne Sauzet built an estate from inherited vines and later acquisitions at Puligny-Montrachet. Today Emilie Boudot and Benoit continue the family’s work after her parents, Jeanine and Gérard Boudot. The vineyard now covers fifteen hectares across Puligny-Montrachet, Chassagne-Montrachet and Cormot-le-Grand in the Hautes-Côtes de Beaune.
The family works biodynamically, focusing on soil life and the relationship between vine and site. Chardonnay is the focus, with wines from a range of Burgundy appellations centred on Puligny-Montrachet.
Domaine Etienne Sauzet 2021 Bourgogne Blanc
Fresh pear, crisp apple and lemon-lime open with a light floral lift. The palate is silky and gently rounded, but a clear mineral line and mouthwatering acidity keep the Chardonnay precise. Subtle citrus and orchard-fruit detail carry through a polished, refreshing finish. Pair with shellfish, roast poultry or a simple mushroom dish.
Domaine Etienne Sauzet 2023 Puligny-Montrachet
Pale lemon-lime in the glass, with a restrained citrus nose that opens gradually. The palate is precise and refined, combining Granny Smith apple, wet-stone minerality and a fine line of acidity. Middleweight and persistent, it carries measured richness without losing its clean, animated shape. Give it a little air, then serve with scallops, roast poultry or creamy cheeses.
Domaine Etienne Sauzet 2019 Puligny-Montrachet Premier Cru Champ Canet
White peach, pear and orange oil open with lavender, citrus confit and a measured touch of oak. The palate is energetic and precise, combining honeycomb and fresh bread with a deep core of fruit and succulent acidity. White flowers, fine spice and crushed chalk add lift and definition. Richly textured yet delicate, it closes with excellent length and a gradually emerging mineral finish.
Domaine Étienne Sauzet 2022 Bourgogne Hautes-Côtes de Beaune Jardin du Calvaire
A light matchstick reduction opens toward toasted sesame, cool citrus, apple blossom and restrained stone fruit. The palate is dry and neatly structured, with lively acidity bringing clarity to a gently rounded texture. Mineral notes remain at the centre rather than oak, giving the wine a clean, composed line. With air, the fruit becomes more expressive and the finish settles into chalk, citrus peel and subtle savoury detail.
