Tight and a touch cold at first, then it really opens. Lemon oil, sea air, salinity, sweet oak, wet earth and that unmistakable white Burgundy mineral perfume. Palate is generous in the 2023 way, round and concentrated, but with excellent acidity, purity and grip. The oak sweetens and integrates as the terroir takes over. Long sea-spray mineral finish that keeps building. Delicious, serious, site-driven Saint-Aubin.

Jul 8th, 2026Stunning nose of hazelnut, brown sugar, iodine, lemon pith, lime and green apple skins. Gorgeous purity and finesse on the nose. Faintest hint of sweet wood. Masterful. Elegant, complex and so saline. Wonderful. Glides across the palate. Amazing purity and elite finesse. Juicy, round and very incisive. So delicate and filigreed. Wow. Nose gets more earthy and mineral as it airs in the glass. Jaw dropping purity and shows the strength of the 2018 vintage in the right hands

Nov 19th, 2021This is the stuff. I love this vineyard in Chavy’s hands. Nose of the nicest lemon ever. It’s a lemon party. Maybe not the best choice of words for the internet. Anyway. Lemon, wet stones, judicious use of discreetly framed oak, like a chef’s salting of a salad. So many wet stones. The nose pierces you. So intense. High toned. Palate has acid. Yeah! Wow, so so bright and mineral. Insane complexity and tight but the sappiness, purity and length show the high quality of this special site. A profound effort.
