Saint-Aubin Blanc 2019 6x75cl

A fine balanced Chardonnay with generous stone fruit and delicate nutty characters, a large component of the fruit is from 1er Cru vineyards within the commune.

Vineyards

The vineyards of Saint-Aubin consist of two areas of approximately equal size situated roughly at right angles to each other. One area occupies chalky limestone soils and is exposed to the south and southeast. In the other area, soils contain a degree of gravel and clay and enjoy a cooler, more easterly exposure.

Vintage

A season of extreme summer temperatures and one of the hottest and sunniest on record which led to lower yields. However, whilst yields are low, the quality and concentration is outstanding, with wines of great character.

Winemaking

Fermentation takes place in oak barrels, after which the wine is aged in barrel for 12 months before being bottled.

Enjoy with:

• Grilled and Roasted White Meats
