Created in 1903, the Domaine Etienne Sauzet has been producing Montrachet since the 1993 vintage. Gérard Boudot, (married to Etienne Sauzet’s grand-daughter) has managed it since 1974 and improved the domaine from the mid-1980s. Limited yields, harvesting as late as possible and classic vinification marked by débourbage (which allows very fine sur lie aging) contribute to creating wines of a very consistent and an exemplary finesse, unanimously hailed by French and foreign wine lovers. Since 1989, following a division of the domaine, Gérard Boudot, has also been trading and buying grape must to complete his production, without affecting quality. The domaine extends over 9 hectares.

A magnificent introduction to the domain's wines, this white Burgundy presents itself in a refined, pure register; concentrated, yet fleshy. To achieve this, the domain has opted to mature some of its wines in casks, and the rest in stainless steel vats. As a result, the wine has a pleasing vivacity to its aromas and flavours (white flowers, citrus, white fruit) and the indulgence of its texture. It can be enjoyed while young, and pairs just as well with petits fours as apéritifs as it does with delicate dishes such as poultry or subtly-flavoured fish.
