" Unwinding in the glass with aromas of pear, citrus oil and green apple mingled with white flowers and wet stones, the 2020 Saint-Aubin 1er Cru Les Murgers des Dents de Chien is medium to full-bodied, layered and concentrated, with lively acids, chalky extract and a seamless profile, concluding with a penetrating finish. As I wrote last year, this cuvée derives from one hectare of holdings—some dating back to the 1950s-1960s, some younger—and sees a longer élevage than the domaine's other Saint-Aubin bottlings."
