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.

La région viticole française de Bourgogne est peut-être petite en taille, mais son influence est énorme dans le monde du vin. La complexité de la Bourgogne peut effrayer même un professionnel du vin chevronné, mais n'ayez crainte : la région est aussi compliquée que vous le souhaitez. Certes, on y trouve certains des vins les plus chers de l'univers connu, mais on y trouve aussi des vins savoureux et abordables.

Principaux raisins :

Le pinot noir est originaire de Bourgogne et ces vignes couvrent 34 % de la région, représentant 29 % de la production totale de vin. Ce raisin rouge s'accommode très bien des sols calcaires et argileux, ce qui contribue à sa complexité. Les vins de pinot noir de Bourgogne ont une couleur qui va de la cerise à la brique, sont légers et présentent généralement des arômes de fruits rouges et d'épices. Le gamay est un raisin rouge également cultivé en Bourgogne, mais il ne représente que 10 % des vignes.

Le chardonnay est le premier cépage des vins blancs de Bourgogne, avec 48 % de l'encépagement et 68 % de la production. Le chardonnay apprécie le sol marneux de la Bourgogne, qui lui confère de délicats arômes floraux, fruités et minéraux, ainsi que des saveurs corsées. L'aligoté est le deuxième cépage blanc, avec 6 % de la production. {En savoir plus sur l'ancien cépage aligoté en Bourgogne.}

La région produit un vin mousseux appelé Crémant de Bourgogne. Il peut être élaboré à partir de chardonnay, de pinot noir, de pinot gris, d'aligoté, de gamay, de sacy et de melon. Les variétés comprennent le blanc, le blanc de blancs, le blanc de noirs et le rosé.
