Robert Parker Wine Advocate Neal Martin - 31 Dec 15
The 2014 Saint Aubin 1er Cru Chatenière has a more reserved and laconic bouquet compared to Pierre-Yves's other 2014 Saint Aubins, more backward and requiring more cellar time. The palate is fresh and crisp, quite precise with nectarine and lemon peel notes, peach following later with a light brush of honey. This is a punter-friendly Saint Aubin and I don't intend that in a bad way - just a wine that is delicious to its core.

(bottled in December): Pale green-tinged yellow. A suggestion of leesy complexity to the aromas of citrus fruits and musky white flowers. Nicely concentrated and saline, showing a youthfully reticent medicinal character. This wine came across as quite bracing following my tasting of Colin-Morey's 2015, with an element of crushed-rock minerality dominating today.

Two different parcels of four- and 48-year-old vines. Very pale straw. Something a little floral about the nose of this. Rather open and broad at first and then it tightens up on the finish. Pungent. Long – builds on the finish. (JR)
