Pale straw. Lime, a bit of sulphur and a mineral feel to the nose. Nice focus on the palate with a good shape and length. Just a touch of slightly hot grip on the finish that signals the vintage. Proper and quite serious. ****

Quite a big, full wine initially despite its relatively moderate abv. Opens up to a nicely mineral, quite grippy mid-palate and a positive finish. Lovely. Doesn't appear to be overtly 09 rich, maintaining a balance and freshness. ****

Lovely saint aubin, very complex, yet fine and elegant. Plenty of life left in this, leave for another few years. With air it developed a good richness but it still is much more fresh than the average 09 white burg.

Crisp, clean and taut this is a nicely sculpted showing for an '09. Nice balance, lifted mouthfeel and pleasant finish. Most enjoyable.

Started off tight but opened up very nicely in the glass
