Note di degustazione
The 2021 Saint-Aubin 1er Cru is a blend of Combes, Les Castets, Créots, Charmois and Sous Roche Dumay, due to the frost damage depleting volumes in those climats, one or two barrels in most cases. It contains around 25% new oak. There is a subtle reduction at play on the nose, fine energy, scents of freshly sliced pears and a hint of quince. The palate is well balanced with impressive weight and a fine bead of acidity; the 2021 is quite tangy towards the finish with touches of stem ginger emerging with time. Not a huge amount of persistence, yet the combination of Premier Crus works well.

A blend of premiers crus Combes, Charmois, Castets, Créot and Sous Roche Dumay, all of which were hit hard by the April frosts, the 2021 Saint-Aubin 1er Cru exhibits aromas of pear, sweet citrus oil and buttery pastry, followed by a medium to full-bodied, satiny and incisive palate that's layered and chalky, with a long, penetrating finish.
