Les Combes Saint-Aubin 1er Cru Chardonnay



Classic expression displaying a harmonious balance between fruit and floral aromas, density and suppleness, power and finesse. This vintage seems to be in a great place for drinking now with an excellent concentration of fruit to support the briny mineral component. Palate-coating and generous in character, but showing great freshness and buoyancy.

It's no secret that 15 isn't my favorite vintage for white Burgundy, but this producer has been solid throughout. There's enough of a reductive outer shell to contain the ripe, rich fruit. Pretty tasty.

2007, lovely complex nose, almost intoxicating, yummy. Light gold, mineral nose, with wood and full of minerals with a touch of citrus, full body, lovely soft yet fresh acidity, long delightful finish. My score 90, drink to 2020.

Drinkable but tired and a few years past prime. Mea culpa.

This is gorgeous! Pear, stone fruits, a salivary stimulator. Any wood is fully integrated. Long. Impressive!

Meyer lemon and white stone nose. Citrus, mineral, and an oily, crushed shell finish.

Tasted after one day open. I don't get to drink much St Aubin. Lovely nose, easy on the mouthfeel, great with guacamole.

2007 vintage
Нос полный, выраженный, минеральный, с легким оксидативным тоном. Относительно полное тело, немного жаркий вкус. Моченое яблоко, цедра грейпфрута, аккуратные кремневые тона, иногда пробивается легкая горечь на финише. Мощный стиль, с хорошим объемом и кислотностью, чуть заигрывающий с оксидативностью. Совсем немного не достаёт глубины.
