The 2022 Saint Aubin Les Frionnes 1er Cru comes from Kimmeridgian soils. This feels focused and mineral-driven on the nose, similar to the Les Murgers des Dents de Chien. There are fleeting touches of oyster shell and fruits de mer blossoming in the glass. The palate is very well balanced, fresh and taut, with a killer line of acidity. The initial roundness dovetails into a stricter and more linear finish. This is superb.
