"The village-level Saint-Aubin from PYCM is a perfect introduction to his style, and to the 2020 vintage. It is seductively aromatic and rich, with pronounced notes of apricot, beeswax and cream, along with an edge of smoky reductive notes on the initial attack. The texture is lush, with ripe fruit held in check by balanced acidity and loads of extract. This wine is already reasonably accessible but should hold up to mid-term ageing at least. It is produced from a blend of vines from throughout the village."

Produces the world's most revered Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from a mosaic of tiny, terroir-defined climats. Its hierarchy of village, Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards makes site the ultimate expression of quality.
2020 in Burgundy was warm, with an early harvest yielding concentrated yet fresh reds of vivid fruit and fine tannins; the whites retain surprising acidity and balance, forming an excellent, versatile vintage.
The world's most versatile white grape, producing everything from steely Chablis to rich, oaked whites. Its neutrality makes it a mirror of terroir and winemaking, and the foundation of white Burgundy and Champagne.
