Description of the Domaine Pillot Fernand et Laurent
Sentier du Clou is a steep, south-east-facing premier cru on the slopes above the village of Saint-Aubin. The domaine owns about 0.4 ha of Chardonnay there, planted in 2007 and Guyot-pruned, on very calcareous white marl soils covered with scree and rich in fossils
Sentier du Clou is a steep, south-east-facing premier cru on the slopes above the village of Saint-Aubin. The domaine owns about 0.4 ha of Chardonnay there, planted in 2007 and Guyot-pruned, on very calcareous white marl soils covered with scree and rich in fossils. It is a cool site that gives taut wines. The grapes are hand-harvested and gently pressed. The wine ferments in French oak barrels and is aged there for 11 to 12 months, 50% new, before being bottled at the domaine.
The 2024 shows a nose of citrus peel and white fruit, with a youthful touch of oak. The palate is fine, bright and taut, carried by a clear mineral freshness. This is a precise, lively Saint-Aubin that will benefit from a year or two in bottle and can age gracefully for several years.

The nose offers white peach, citrus and white flowers, with a touch of hazelnut. The palate is fleshy and creamy, carried by bright acidity and chalky minerality

There is excellent cut, minerality and a sophisticated texture to the driving middle weight flavors that tighten up immediately on the refined

Domaine Bart
Clos De Bèze
An exuberantly spicy nose combines notes of plum, dark currant, violets and underbrush. There is terrific intensity and a lovely minerality to the ripe and well-delineated medium weight
