"A first growth wine full of delicacy and roundness, the quintessence of its exceptional terroir..."
The Au Pied du Mont Chauve estate, owned by the Picard family, has once again produced an elegant Saint-Aubin Le Charmois. Its aromas of nuts, apricot, and toast are seductive and invite you to taste it. The palate is waxy and nutty, offering magnificent depth. Without a doubt, this is a wine for fine dining.

Eye
Golden color, silver highlights, shiny surface
Nose
Expressive, with subtle notes of peony and wax
Mouth
Well-balanced, with time, the wine reveals more body and richness and loses some of its citrus notes, with a slightly mineral texture. A delicate and seductive wine with a tangy finish.

About the estate:
Francine Picard, Michel's daughter, is putting all her considerable energy and idealism into reshaping the style of the wines produced by the family empire, which encompasses 140 hectares of vineyards. Since May 2019, she has been supported by Antoine Lepetit, a biodynamic consultant and her new technical director. The estate will be certified organic at the end of 2019 and changes are set to continue with even more precise vinification and aging processes. An extensive range of high-quality red and white wines provides a real insight into the different climates of the Chassagne and Saint-Aubin area.
