The 2013 Saint Aubin 1er Cru En Remilly possesses the best nose of Pierre-Yves’s Saint Aubin premier crus with apricot blossom and lime-flower scents intermingling with the mineral notes. The palate is very well balanced with a taut line of acidity, very good weight in the mouth but not “fatness." The tension is maintained from the start to the graceful and focused finish. Pick of the bunch from P-Y's Saint Aubin? Definitely.

Pale yellow. Aromatic nose offers scents of lemon, underripe pineapple, white pepper, spearmint and powdered stone. Juicy, quite dry and tight, with excellent acid cut to the lemon and lime flavors. Distinctly austere--even a bit green--but finishes with very good length. In recent years, Colin has picked these vines after the Chateniere.

Both smoky and peachy on the nose. Broad but catches the throat. Very youthful and tight. (JR)
