Chevalier-Montrachet 2020 - E. Sauzet

Tasting notes

The Chevalier-Montrachet 2020 from Domaine Etienne Sauzet is an exceptional Grand Cru, sourced from the prestigious terroir of Puligny-Montrachet. This 100% Chardonnay is aged in oak barrels for approximately 12 months, followed by an extended period of aging on fine lees, which imparts remarkable complexity and depth.

Its brilliant golden hue leads to an elegant nose, where aromas of ripe white fruits, white flowers, and the distinctive chalky minerality of the region intertwine. On the palate, it offers a beautiful tension, with a silky texture and persistent freshness, perfectly balancing the richness of the vintage.

This wine pairs beautifully with refined dishes such as lobster, langoustines, fish in sauce, or truffle-based dishes. With impressive aging potential of 15 to 20 years, the Chevalier-Montrachet 2020 is an ideal cuvée for collectors and connoisseurs of fine Burgundy wines.
