This Chardonnay from Olivier Leflaive is a Saint-Aubin 1er Cru ‘En Remilly’. Sourced from vines with an average age of 26 years, the grapes for this wine benefit from limestone soils and a protected location that avoids frost. The 2020 vintage was marked by early ripening and warm temperatures, resulting in a wine with beautiful balance. Expect notes of almond, cinnamon, and spice alongside a mineral character reminiscent of flint. Enjoy this elegant white Burgundy with oysters, scallops carpaccio, or trout with almonds.
