Confidential wine selection, small estates & old vintage
This Saint-Aubin 1er Cru from the Combes au Sud benefits from a succession of sunny vintages that highlight its late terroir. With a complex and expressive nose, it offers a palate volume perfectly supported by an energetic minerality with peppery accents.
The cool climate of the Combes au Sud, primarily east-facing, features a calcareous and stony soil rich in iron oxides, contributing to the wine's structured mineral and spicy character. After nearly two years of aging, first in barrels and then in tanks, this 1er Cru showcases a serene balance and a pleasing sense of fullness.
On the nose, initial smoky notes give way to white and yellow flowers, with hints of honey and fresh coriander. As it aerates, fruity aromas of peach, pear, and melon emerge, along with grapefruit zest and juniper berries.
On the palate, the expertly balanced duality between flavorful fruits and invigorating intensity is highlighted by notes of candied lemon and green pepper. The overall experience is a maximum pleasure, making this wine a true delight.
