Aroma
When young, it combines aromas of white flowers, flint, green almond, and orange-flower. Richer fragrances come with age: beeswax and honey, marzipan, ambergris, and cinnamon.
Appearance
This Saint-Aubin has a beautiful coloration with golden highlights.
Palate
This is a firm and flattering wine - it becomes fleshier and fuller with time. This is a wine with real breeding.
Vinification
Handpicked harvest. Traditional fermentation. Maturation in clay amphora and barrels during 18-22 months in cellar to highlight the purity of the fruit.
Region Notes
The Saint-Aubin appellation extends over an altitude vineyard that produces white wines of good quality, and whose reputation continues to grow. Its area is 1.60 square kilometers, on an area set back from those of Puligny and Chassagne. The wine landscape is very hilly and is therefore home to several climates with very variable exposures and soils. Local appellations and wines classified in Premier Cru are spread over four zones.
