2015 St Aubin Blanc Sous Roche Dumay

The 2015 Saint Aubin 1er Cru Sous Roche Dumay, which came from tank and had spent 12 months in barrel (20% new ), has a taut, slightly more austere, stony bouquet that suggests that it will benefit from 12-24 months in bottle once that is done next year. The palate is medium-bodied with fresh nectarine and white peach notes on the entry. There is a slight viscosity that become more apparent towards the finish and perhaps just shaves away some of the tension and mineralité that it might have had in a cooler growing season. Still, this is a commendable Saint Aubin that should give a decades' worth of drinking pleasure.
