Domaine Étienne Sauzet Bourgogne Hautes-Côtes de Beaune “Jardin du Calvaire”

A fresh, elegant and terroir-focused Chardonnay from the Hautes-Côtes de Beaune, offering a more approachable expression of Burgundy while retaining the refinement associated with Domaine Étienne Sauzet.

The wine shows an attractive balance of citrus freshness, orchard fruit and subtle Burgundy texture. On the nose, expect lemon, green apple, pear and white flowers, with delicate notes of almond, fresh herbs and mineral stone. The palate is crisp and lively, with a fine, silky texture and refreshing acidity. A subtle creamy character adds roundness, while the finish remains clean, dry and lightly saline.
