Here’s a name to remember: Sylvain Bzikot. Based in Puligny-Montrachet — yes, that Puligny-Montrachet — Bzikot is quietly establishing himself as one of Burgundy’s most exciting young producers. And the good news for your wallet is that this Bourgogne Côte d’Or gives you a genuine taste of his winemaking talent without the Premier Cru price tag. The 2024 is a beauty — the nose is elegant and precise, with ripe white peach, nectarine, and a subtle hazelnut note from careful oak handling, underpinned by that cool, stony minerality that is the hallmark of great white Burgundy. On the palate it’s creamy and textured, with a lovely freshness keeping everything in perfect balance, and a long, mineral-driven finish that lingers with real class. Buy it now, tell your friends about it later.
