Les Perrières Saint-Aubin 1er Cru Chardonnay
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.

Dec 28th, 2019Fully 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.
