Domaine Derain Saint-Aubin 1er Cru En Remilly 2022

Premier Cru Chardonnay, 

Burgundy, France

En Remilly is one of the most celebrated Premier Cru vineyards of Saint-Aubin, lying on the rocky limestone slopes that border Chassagne-Montrachet. Here, the roots of the vines dig between near-marble limestone, giving the wines their precision, minerality, and depth.

Farmed organically and vinified naturally, this Chardonnay is directly pressed and aged in barrel for 18 months on its lees. The result is a wine of both power and elegance — aromas of citrus and stone fruit layered with chalky minerality and subtle oak.

Sharing the same terroir as its famous neighbours in Chassagne-Montrachet, En Remilly is considered one of the best-value Premier Crus in Burgundy. Structured and pure, it is already drinking beautifully but will reward careful cellaring.
