Saint-Aubin
1er Cru Champlots
A dream vintage which offers generous volumes and superb quality. Water is a major player during the winter which allows the vines to build up their reserves before a particularly hot and dry summer. Favored by a mild spring, flowering took place perfectly with beautiful and numerous clusters. No major climatic incident hampers the growing cycle. The harvest, which was in impeccable health, took place from August 27 to September 15.

Tasting note
Champlots is always lean, even angular at times. An excellent canvas for Chardonnay’s iodine, limestone and citrus qualities.
Food pairings
Ideal with langoustine, crab and lobster and goes really well with grilled white meat and soft cheese.
