"This smoky, generously structured wine comes from the Picard family vineyards near Chassagne-Montrachet. It has ripe fruit flavors balanced by acidity. Rich and powerful for a wine of this appellation, it develops well. Drink from 2021. (Wine Enthusiast 2018). A most elegant Saint-Aubin, both upright and rich, balanced by lovely acidity.

Domain rated (2021 guide) 3*Stars (High-quality production that can serve as a benchmark in its sector)

About the domain :

Francine Picard, Michel's daughter, puts all her considerable energy and idealism into reshaping the style of wines from the family empire, 140 hectares of vines. Since May 2019, she has been supported by biodynamic consultant Antoine Lepetit, her new technical director. The estate will be certified organic at the end of 2019, and the changes are set to continue with even more precise vinification and ageing. A wide range of top-quality red and white cuvées gives a real insight into the different climates of the Chassagne and Saint-Aubin area.
