2020 Henri Prudhon Saint-Aubin Blanc 1er Cru 'Les Perrieres', Cote de Beaune, France
$53.99
This half hectare parcel of 35 year old vines sits to the northeast of the village slightly lower on the hill than the Sentier du Clou. The soil here is intensely stony. This was the very first of the 1er Cru whites to be bottled at the domaine in the early 1980s. The wines sees 12 months of élevage and about 20% of the barrels are new. The “Perrieres” is an ample wine with formidable complexity.
