2023 Domaine Benoit Ente Bourgogne Blanc, Burgundy, France

A masterclass in elegance and precision, the 2023 Bourgogne Blanc from Benoît Ente overdelivers with its quiet intensity and unmistakable Puligny character. Aromas of white peach, Meyer lemon, and crushed chalk lead into a finely balanced palate where citrus-driven tension meets a subtle creaminess. There's a whisper of oak, perfectly integrated, giving depth without distraction. The finish is long, saline, and impeccably clean—an essential snapshot of Ente’s exacting style in its most accessible form.

ABOUT THIS WINE

Crafted from Chardonnay vines just outside Puligny-Montrachet, this Bourgogne Blanc is farmed with the same rigorous standards as Ente’s top crus. The 2023 vintage, marked by moderate temperatures and even ripening, yielded fruit with remarkable freshness and definition. Fermented with native yeasts and aged in a mix of mostly neutral oak barrels, the wine expresses pure orchard fruit, citrus zest, and wet stone minerality. Texturally refined, it carries a subtle creaminess supported by bracing acidity and a mineral spine. This is not a simple regional wine—it’s a disciplined, terroir-driven expression meant to pair beautifully with delicate shellfish, roast chicken, or young Comté.

ABOUT THIS PRODUCER

Benoît Ente has built a reputation for crafting some of the most precise and quietly profound wines in Burgundy. Since taking over his family domaine in Puligny-Montrachet, Ente has honed a philosophy rooted in balance, patience, and respect for the vineyard. Organic farming practices and low-intervention cellar work define his approach, allowing each wine to transparently reflect site and season. Though his holdings are modest, every cuvée—from Aligoté to Premier Cru—is treated with the same level of care. The Bourgogne Blanc is a window into Ente’s world: humble in name, but exacting in execution.
