Background
The family acquired this parcel some time ago. It was planted in Pinot Noir and they have replanted it with Chardonnay. Located in a prestigious part of the Saint Aubin bowl just behind Chassagne-Montrachet. A wine that resembles the better wines from Chassagne. Sometimes called a “poor man’s Chassagne”.
Tasting Notes
Creamy citrus fruit up front, touch of minerality in midpalate, good length to finish.
