Note: aged half in wood, half in steel with only <10% of the portion in wood being new - from Puligny vines. A slightly riper mix features notes of pear, apple and lemon zest. The sleek, delicious and nicely textured flavors possess reasonable vibrancy while delivering good length on the equally clean and dry finale. This could use better depth so a year or two of keeping should help.

Foudres, 600 litre barrels, older 228s and 10% in tank. A lime tint to the colour, while the nose is clearly riper than the Aligoté. A little more flesh on the palate but this is more marked by its biodynamic purity. Plenty of energy at the back of the palate, and fine persistence. Baby Puligny, almost. Includes some purchases. Drink from 2026-2028. Tasted Oct 2024.

The 2023 Bourgogne Blanc has a crisp and quite nuanced bouquet of Granny Smith and light fresh pear scents. This is quite mineral-driven, considering it is a mere regional white. The palate is well balanced and not complex. It has commendable weight, plenty of malic flavors and a dash of white pepper and dill on the finish.(NM)

This was such a pleasant surprise, I haven't tasted as much Burgundy as I should have perhaps but Domaine Etienne Sauzet is one that I definitely recognize. This one is especially exciting, because it's declassified young vine Puligny-Montrachet. The result is a Bourgogne Blanc that definitely tastes more expensive than it is. There's just a touch of mostly neutral oak on the nose, along with really pretty ripe green apple and fresh lemon wedges. The palate is fairly deep, but incredibly round and pretty in the mouth, with a really lush and pretty line of acidity through the whole palate. There's a really lovely chalky minerality on the finish that kind of works its way around the light oak and the fruit in a way that just makes this so crazy sippable, drying everything out just enough to push you to take that next sip. The finish is lingering, with just a touch of something toasty and a little bit of a pithy lemon finish. This is a wine that is over-delivering with every sip, and especially with a little age on it will have elegance and grace I am unable to adequately describe in prose.

Notes

Bill Nanson Burgundy Report: "this cuvée from 3 parcels in the commune of Puligny, plus some bought grapes from the bottom of Meursault too. It could be Côte d’Or – the label hasn’t yet changed…More direct aromas and with some extra weight too. Again, still some gas, larger scale. Another wine that finishines with vibrancy, indeed intensity here, and shows a little more weight – like the nose. Fading deliciously – a Beautiful Bourgogne again…" (09/2024)
