Tasting notes
The 2021 Saint-Aubin Les Champlots 1er Cru has a much more open and airy bouquet with crushed rock and struck flint unfurling in the glass. The palate is taut and fresh with crisp acidity, a little more reduced than other crus but with a welcome spiciness that prolongs the finish. Give this a couple of years in bottle.

The 2021 Saint-Aubin 1er Cru Les Champlots is especially good this year, delivering aromas of waxy citrus, confit orange, iodine and toasted nuts. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and incisive, it's impressively complete, with a penetrating, saline finish.
Cask sample. Fine mid-lemon hue. Lovely citrus, very fresh and bright. Apple, lemon and white flowers, given spice and complexity from the oak. The acidity is less pronounced here with a fuller, fruit profile. (MH)
