Description

The 2022 Saint-Aubin Le Charmois 1er Cru is slightly more reductive than the preceding Champlots, with yellow plum, jasmine and broom scents. This is well-defined, the oak neatly embroidered into the aromatics. The palate is very well-balanced with a plush opening. Yellow plum commingles with blood orange, white pepper and a dab of lemongrass, fanning out gloriously towards the finish. It's one of my picks from the Domaine this year.

Drink 2025 - 2042

Critics reviews

Jasper Morris MW 90-93/100

Clear mid lemon. There is very little apparent on the nose at first. Some fruit, and even some summer flowers, begin to emerge. There is a freshness to this along with concentration. It remains quite discreet, backward, needing the rest of the elevage, but there is a mineral note to the final acidity which promises very well.
