Product Description: Stone fruit and salinity from one of Saint-Aubin’s elevated 1er Crus. The 2023 Saint-Aubin 1er Cru “Sur le Sentier du Clou” from Joseph Colin is a tightly composed, mineral-driven Chardonnay shaped by altitude, limestone, and restraint. Grown on white clay-limestone soils just above the hamlet of Gamay, this parcel borders some of Saint-Aubin’s finest sites, and the fruit reflects that pedigree with clarity and finesse. This vintage delivers a crystalline, fluid style—glossy yet not overripe, with aromas of white peach, green apple, and grapefruit oil. The palate mirrors that brightness, layering stone fruit with a chalky, saline thread and a finish that lingers on smoked minerality. As always, Colin avoids bâtonnage and fining, using only minimal sulphur at bottling to preserve the wine’s tension and detail. Best enjoyed from 2025–2029, or now with a short decant. Serve with roast poultry, scallops, crayfish or rich white fish. Tasting Notes NOSE – Polished and expressive Ripe white peach, green apple and a hint of grapefruit oil. PALATE – Mineral and precise Fleshy stone fruit, chalk, and smoked saline depth. FINISH – Long and crystalline Taught and salty with fine mineral persistence. Reviews & Accolades “Fluid, attractive, and quite crystalline... rather more body on the palate but still in a less ripe idiom.” – Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy, 89–93 Points

Product Description: Seven plots, one voice—Saint-Aubin with detail and drive. Domaine Joseph Colin’s 2023 Saint-Aubin 'Compendium' is a blend of seven lieux-dits across the appellation, designed to express the full range of what Saint-Aubin can deliver in a single bottle. The name means “synthesis,” and it fits—this is a Chardonnay of clarity, subtle power and quiet complexity. Grown on limestone-rich soils and made with minimal intervention—no bâttonage, no fining, no sulphur until bottling—the wine is fermented in 350-litre oak barrels and aged briefly in stainless steel for added definition. The result? A focused, linear expression with notes of orange citrus, Granny Smith apple, flint and a saline twist. A slight herbal and chalky lift rounds it out, with tension that’s unmistakably Saint-Aubin. Drink now with a short decant or cellar until 2029. It pairs beautifully with roast poultry, shellfish, or rich white fish dishes. Tasting Notes NOSE – Citrus and chalk Orange zest, flint, white flowers and a whiff of sea spray. PALATE – Lively and textured Citrus peel, green apple and a subtle thread of liquorice. FINISH – Mineral and saline Chiselled, with lingering chalk and fine acidity. Reviews & Accolades “Clean, clear-cut fruit, chiselled... slightly saline to finish. This is rather fine in its understated style.” – Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy, 89–91 Points

Product Description: A sunny-side parcel with real finesse. Drawn from a mere 0.5-hectare plot planted in 1998, Moreau’s Vaudésir 2023 is a fine-boned, mineral-driven expression of Grand Cru Chablis. This parcel sits near the top of the slope with south-east exposure—capturing morning sun while preserving freshness. The fruit is handled with restraint: fermentation in stainless steel, followed by élevage in seasoned oak to bring textural depth without overt influence. The result is poised and detailed. Citrus, white peach and saline florals meet a fine, crystalline texture and quiet persistence. Compared to Moreau’s more muscular bottlings, Vaudésir carries itself with elegance and lift—a Grand Cru that speaks in clear, articulate tones rather than volume. Tasting Notes NOSE – Floral and refined White peach, acacia and citrus zest, with a subtle note of algae and fine oak. PALATE – Textural and mineral Medium weight and precise, layered with clean acidity and slate-like energy. FINISH – Balanced and complex Refined and persistent, with a mineral finish that unfolds slowly and cleanly. Reviews & Accolades “There is both fine intensity and a lovely texture to the mineral-driven medium weight flavors that deliver very good length on the balanced, refined and notably more complex finale. Lovely.” – Burghound, (91–93)/2030+, October 2024

Product Description: A steep-slope Grand Cru with quiet depth and evolving precision. The 2023 Chablis Grand Cru ‘Blanchot’ from Domaine Christian Moreau Père et Fils is sourced from a minuscule 0.10-hectare parcel perched near the top of the Blanchot slope. With its cooler, east-facing exposure and white limestone soils, this site brings a poised, elegant profile to the domaine’s lineup of Grands Crus. In 2023, the wine shows a floral and exotic-tinged nose—passionfruit, white orchard fruits, and a touch of quinine—lifted by finely judged oak. It’s richer and more voluminous than expected from such a cool site, yet still grounded by minerality. While already expressive, it promises greater depth with time in bottle. Drink from 2030+. Chardonnay. Aged partially in oak. Serve with butter-poached lobster, turbot with fennel, or white asparagus. Tasting Notes NOSE – Floral and exotic Passionfruit, white peach, and a hint of quinine overlaid with light oak. PALATE – Plush and mineral Generous texture with orchard fruit and a core of limestone tension. FINISH – Long and balanced Persistent finish with gentle weight and developing complexity. Reviews & Accolades Very rich, even plush, medium-bodied flavors... more depth should reasonably develop if given a chance. – Burghound, Burghound.com, (90–93) (October 2024)
