Why You’ll Like It

This wine is a beautiful expression of a sun-kissed vintage from a cool, limestone-rich site. It opens with a stunning aromatic bouquet of ripe white peach, crisp green apple, and a twist of lemon zest. As it unfolds in the glass, you’ll discover elegant floral notes and the classic minerality Saint-Aubin is known for—think of wet stones and a hint of flint.

On the palate, it is both rich and razor-sharp. The ripe stone fruit flavours are balanced by a vibrant, electric acidity that gives the wine incredible energy and length. The texture is creamy and rounded, a sign of skilled oak ageing (likely in large, neutral barrels), which adds depth without overpowering the beautiful fruit. The finish is long, clean, and mouthwateringly mineral. It’s a wine that is both delicious now and has the structure to evolve beautifully.

How To Drink It

• Serving Temperature: Serve chilled, but not ice-cold. Aim for 10-12°C (50-54°F). This allows the complex aromas and flavours to shine. Too cold, and you’ll mute its beautiful bouquet.

• Food Pairing: A classic partner for fine white Burgundy. It is sublime with roasted chicken, grilled sea bass, or lobster with butter sauce. Its acidity and richness also make it a perfect match for creamy pasta dishes, risottos, and elegant soft cheeses like Brie or Camembert.

• Decanting: Not strictly necessary, but a 20-30 minute decant (or simply swirling in the glass) will help this wine open up and reveal its full spectrum of aromas, especially in its youth.

• Cellaring Potential: The 2019 vintage is drinking beautifully now but has the acidity and structure to age gracefully. Enjoy its youthful fruit over the next 2-3 years, or cellar it with confidence for 5-7 years to develop more complex, honeyed nuances.

Store the bottle on its side in a cool, dark place until you’re ready to enjoy this exquisite taste of Burgundy.
