Joseph Colin Saint-Aubin "Mes Sept Terroirs", 2022

This village cuvée features fruit from the 7 parcels that Joseph farms, hence the Sept Terroirs. Meant to be a perfect snapshot of the village and vintage, Sept Terroirs is fermented and aged in neutral 500 liter barrels. 2021 was a challenging and very small vintage, but the quality is off the charts. With verve and structure that hasn't been seen since 2014, this is a delicious rendition full of citrus blossoms, orchard fruit, quince, juniper and green peppercorn. Serve at 50 degrees in a Burgundy stem with roast chicken or grilled fish. Drinking window from now until 2028.   100% Chardonnay From 7 parcels in St. Aubin 2/3rd from Le Banc and from Champ Tirant, 1/3rd from Tope Bataille, Au Bas de Jorcul, En l’Ebaupin 20+ year old vines 350-400m average altitude Clay-limestone soils, with lots of stones Indigenous yeast Fermented and aged in older 500L barrels Unfined and unfiltered
