2022 Etienne Sauzet Bourgogne Hautes Côtes de Beaune "Jardin du Calvaire", Burgundy, France

ABOUT THIS WINE

Etienne Sauzet's Bourgogne Hautes Côtes de Beaune "Jardin du Calvaire" comes from high-altitude vineyards just above the more renowned Côte de Beaune. The cool climate and limestone soils contribute to the wine's refreshing acidity and minerality, while a gentle touch of oak adds depth without overpowering the fruit. The 2022 vintage showcases the region’s characteristic vibrancy and precision, making it an elegant example of Bourgogne Blanc. This Chardonnay pairs wonderfully with seafood, creamy poultry dishes, or light cheeses, offering excellent value for a Burgundy of this caliber.
