Pale to mid lemon yellow. This is one of the riper noses where the pure chiselled white fruit of Chevalier is overlaid by a touch of honeysuckle. Which is not to disparage, because I like this wine very much, there’s a fresher fruit tension behind on the palate as well, and excellent length. It is actually very lovely. Very persistent.
Open and expressive, Sauzet's 2019 Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru bursts with notes of citrus oil, white flowers, toasted nuts and ripe apples. Medium to full-bodied, round and charming, it's lively and saline, with an open but precise profile. This appears to be a giving, immediate wine in the making.
A cuvée produced from purchased must, Sauzet's 2018 Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru delivers a pretty bouquet of citrus oil, white flowers, fresh peach and clear honey. Full-bodied, ample and incisive, it's beautifully defined, even if it can't match the depth and concentration of the Bâtard and Bienvenues.
Citrus fruits, almonds and buttery notes reveal themselves on the palate with power and elegance. The texture is creamy and caresses the palate with roundness. Our taste buds benefit from the complex and flamboyant finish! A tasting that you won't forget!
Food and wine pairings and service Swimming lobster, crayfish casserole, capon with white wine and morels, pike
Vineyard A plot of 9 hectares including 5 in Chassagne and 4 in Puligny. The Chardonnay vines are thirty years old at an altitude of 250 meters on clayey limestone soils.
Winemaking and aging Aging is done in oak barrels, 50% of which are new. This meticulous aging brings structure, roundness and complexity to this Grand Cru.
The 2016 Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru was touched by the frost so that there are just two barrels instead of four. It turns the amp up on the Bâtard-Montrachet with even more expressive, mint-tinged citrus fruit complemented by scents of quince and passion fruit. There is just a slight hint of VA but nothing much. The palate is very well balanced with a ripe, saline entry, good weight in the mouth and a slightly rounded, dense finish that just misses the precision of either the 2014 or 2015, or even the detail of the Bâtard-Montrachet. Let's see how this evolves in bottle because at the moment the Bâtard-Montrachet is a couple of furlongs ahead (at least in barrel).
The 2015 Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru has a powerful, almost show-stopping bouquet with intense yellow plum, Mirabelle and grey slate-like aromas that are beautifully defined. The palate is very well balanced, harnessing the richness of the growing season by keeping a tight rein thanks to the terroir. Great depth here, superb acidity and the finish is very complex, with hints of almond and grilled walnut on the persistent finish. This is an impressive Chevalier-Montrachet that represents a very worthy follow-up to the 2014.

Tasted blind, the 2010 Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru is developing an attractive bouquet with melted wax, resinous aromas with hints of dried honey and a faint whiff of French patisserie. The palate is showing good depth and vigor, quite spicy with hints of honey and quince showing up towards the second half. It is an extrovert Chevalier-Montrachet for sure, more cocksure than the 2011 perhaps, although it trips over its shoelaces on the finish that does not quite deliver the length to back up its bravado. Still, it is a thoroughly enjoyable grand cru that should give 12-15 years of drinking pleasure. Tasted October 2016.

Etienne Sauzet er en berømt vinproducent i Bourgogne-regionen i Frankrig. Ejendommen har en lang og rig historie, der går tilbage til begyndelsen af 1900-tallet, hvor den blev grundlagt af Etienne Sauzet selv. I dag drives ejendommen af hans barnebarn, Jeanne Sauzet, som har videreført familietraditionen med at producere enestående vine.

Produktionsstilen hos Etienne Sauzet er fokuseret på minimal indgriben, så terroiret kan komme fuldt ud til udtryk i vinene. Ejendommen har i alt 10 hektar vinmarker, som er spredt over nogle af de mest prestigefyldte appellationer i Bourgogne, herunder Puligny-Montrachet, Chassagne-Montrachet og Meursault.

Vinene fra Etienne Sauzet er kendt for deres elegance, finesse og kompleksitet. Godset er især kendt for sine hvidvine, som er lavet på Chardonnay-druer, der er dyrket i den kalkrige jord i Bourgogne. Disse vine er kendetegnet ved deres lyse syre, mineralitet og noter af citrus og stenfrugt.

Ud over sine hvidvine producerer Etienne-Auzet også en lille mængde rødvin, fremstillet af Pinot Noir-druer, der dyrkes i de samme vinmarker som de hvide druer. Disse vine er kendt for deres delikate aromaer af rød frugt og deres silkebløde tanniner.

Alt i alt er Etienne-Auzet en producent, der er højt respekteret af vinentusiaster over hele verden. Vinene er et ægte udtryk for Bourgognes terroir, og de vil helt sikkert imponere selv de mest kræsne ganer.

Den franske vinregion Bourgogne er måske lille af størrelse, men dens indflydelse er enorm i vinens verden. Bourgognes kompleksitet kan gøre selv en garvet vinkender bange, men frygt ikke - regionen behøver kun at være så kompliceret, som du ønsker, den skal være. Ja, det er hjemsted for nogle af de dyreste vine i det kendte univers, men der er også velsmagende og prisvenlige vine.

De vigtigste druer:

Pinot Noir stammer fra Bourgogne, og disse vinstokke dækker 34% af regionen og står for 29% af den samlede vinproduktion. Den røde drue klarer sig ekstremt godt i kalksten og lerjord, hvilket er med til at skabe deres kompleksitet. Pinot Noir-vine fra Bourgogne varierer i farve fra kirsebær til mursten, er lette i kroppen og har typisk rød frugt og krydret smag. Gamay er en rød drue, som også dyrkes i Bourgogne, men den udgør kun 10 % af vinstokkene.

Chardonnay er den primære drue til hvidvin i Bourgogne og udgør 48 % af vinstokkene og 68 % af produktionen. Chardonnay sætter pris på Bourgognes mergeljord, som giver den delikate blomster-, frugt- og mineralaromaer og en fyldig smag. Aligoté er den anden hvide drue og tegner sig for 6 % af produktionen. {Læs mere om den gamle Aligoté-drue i Bourgogne.}

Regionen producerer en mousserende vin kaldet Crémant de Bourgogne. Den kan fremstilles af Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, Aligoté, Gamay, Sacy og Melon. Sorterne omfatter blanc, blanc de blancs, blanc de noirs og rosé.
