A bit too tart for me. Sour fruit dominated this wine and the balance was never really there. I hope it resolves itself as it gets older.

Fully mature & ready to go. Touch of hazelnut, toffee and brioche; sort of a baby Chassagne, which is what good St Aubin should be. Bodes well for a lot of the tight, structured Chardonnay made in this vintage.

Linear, less fruit. Stark minerality.

Strong limestone minerality, plus lime flavors. Tart green apple. White flowers. White pepper. Plenty of time left on this one...

Spicy, white pepper and white flower nose at first. Gradually becomes papaya, dried apricots, pineapple and tons of honey. Puligny like. Very nice! 2009 vintage
