St. Aubin Hommage a Marguerite Blanc 2022 Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey

Professionele reviews

Vinous (93)

The 2022 Saint-Aubin Hommage à Marguerite 1er Cru blends Perrière, Créots, Les Combes and Pitangerets (part of Les Combes). The wonderful bouquet offers scents of peach skin, chai and a brush of chalk dust, very enticing even at this early stage. The palate is very well-balanced with a little more tension than the regular Saint-Aubin, a slightly flinty finish completing this very able wine.

Here the airy white fleshed fruit nose flirts with reduction so be sure to allow for a few minutes of aeration if you plan to crack a bottle young. More interesting are the bigger-bodied and richer, though not necessarily more mineral-driven, flavors that deliver fine length on the balanced finale where a discreet touch of youthful austerity slowly emerges.

This cuvee has been a blend of Perrières, Combes, Créots and PItangerets since 2016, all pressed and vinified together. The blend effectively covers all the possible exposures of St-Aubin. The bouquet is rather unforthcoming, though there is an attractive weight of white fruit on the palate, with more generosity at the finish.

Robert Parker (92)

Opening in the glass with aromas of white flowers, pear, crisp green apple, oatmeal and praline, the 2022 Saint-Aubin 1er Cru Hommage à Marguerite is medium to full-bodied, with a satiny attack that segues into a fleshy core of fruit framed by chalky dry extract.
