This Olivier Leflaive Saint-Aubin 1er Cru ‘Dents de Chien’ 2022, a premier Chardonnay from Burgundy, promises a captivating experience. On the nose, expect intense aromas of ripe yellow and white fruits like pear, lemon zest, and white peach, intertwined with distinct mineral notes of flint and wet stone. Delicate hints of toasted hazelnut, white flowers, and subtle oak spice (vanilla, brioche) from careful barrel aging will also emerge. The palate is rich and full-bodied, yet beautifully balanced by a vibrant, saline acidity. Flavors mirror the aromatic profile, with a powerful mineral drive, citrus brightness, and a creamy texture that expands across the mid-palate. The finish is long, persistent, and refreshing, leaving behind a lingering mineral and nutty impression.
