Aromas of pear, citrus blossom, wet stone, and light hazelnut lead into a palate that is supple yet vibrant, with subtle oak spice and a mineral edge. The finish is saline, refined, and persistent.

Saint-Romain is often considered the leaner version of Meursault, but this shows the ripe and generous orchard fruit very well. The appellation is gaining renewed attention in a warming Burgundy climate.
