Saint-Aubin Sous Roche Dumay 1er Cru 2022, Pierre Brisset
A monumental white for charisma, breadth, and stylistic rigor. The olfactory profile alternates noble yellow fruits with mineral notes and finely refined pastry hints. On the palate, it is dense, savory, and characterized by a masterful balance between the power of sun-kissed Chardonnay and the terroir's verticality. A display of style that represents the pinnacle of the Côte de Beaune.
Saint-Aubin Sous Roche Dumay 1er Cru 2022, Pierre Brisset
The Saint-Aubin 1er Cru "Sous Roche Dumay" 2022 by Pierre Brisset is a monumental work, a white wine that in this warm vintage achieves a masterful balance between rich body and the mineral tension that defines this climat located in the upper part of the appellation. While the 2021 shone for its icy acidity, the 2022 indulges with sumptuous generosity, while still maintaining that "rocky" character typical of the elevated position. On the nose, it is a concert of rare elegance: crisp yellow peach, candied lemon peel, and orange blossom notes blend with deep hints of almond tart, warm chalk, and a mineral trail reminiscent of flint. On the palate, it is broad and architectural; the entry is sumptuous, dominated by a dense texture yet governed by an aristocratic balsamic freshness that extends the sip toward a savory, endless, and vibrant finish.
