Tasting Notes

Here too a very mild touch of reduction knocks down the expressiveness of the mostly floral and green fruit nose that introduces reasonably precise and delicious middle weight flavors that evidence a hint of minerality on the dry, clean, balanced and lingering finish. This too will need to add depth as it's presently a bit less complex.

Score: 89

The 2013 Saint Aubin 1er Cru en Montceau, which Damien Colin told me was one of his favorite premier crus this year, has a complex bouquet with hints of lemon curd and dried apricot emerging with aeration. This is in stark contrast to the en Remilly that is stonier and more reserved. The palate is well balanced with lemon zest, orange peel and hints of peach all served up with a side order of spice on the finish. It’s perhaps a little brash compared to the other premier crus, but there is plenty to savor here and the length is impressive.

Score: 90 - 92
