Tasting Story

Saint-Aubin is one of Burgundy's hidden treasures, and En Remilly stands among its finest Premier Cru vineyards. In the hands of Dominique Derain, this Chardonnay is crafted with clarity and restraint.

Citrus and orchard fruit lead, layered over a chalky mineral core and touched by gentle hazelnut richness. Both elegant and powerful, the wine balances tension with generosity — a clear expression of what natural Burgundy can achieve at its highest level.

Serving Tip

Serve at 10–12°C. Brief decanting is recommended. Capable of ageing gracefully for 5–8 years.
