Description
Louis Billard's Saint-Aubin “Les Castets” 1er Cru 2024 is a precise and expressive Chardonnay that skillfully combines freshness, elegance, and mineral tension. Saint-Aubin is one of the most exciting white wine appellations in the Côte de Beaune, particularly known for Chardonnays with clear structure and fine minerality.
In the glass, the wine initially appears straightforward and fresh, but with some aeration, it develops increasing depth and complexity. Citrus fruits, white peach, and pear form the fruity core, accompanied by floral and subtly nutty nuances. On the palate, a fine richness combines with vibrant acidity, making the wine light-footed and precise despite its substance. A chalky, slightly salty note provides additional tension and accompanies the long, elegant finish.
This is what to expect when drinking
Lemon, white peach, and pear meet white blossoms, delicate almonds, and subtle stony-mineral nuances.
Fresh and precise, with juicy fruit, a delicate texture and lively acidity. Mineral and slightly salty notes add tension to the wine, leading to a long, clean finish.
Excellent with scallops, oysters, shellfish, roasted fish, poultry, veal, and mild mature cheeses.
