2022 Henri Prudhon & Fils Sur Gamay, Saint-Aubin Premier Cru, France

As the name implies, this parcel of approximately of an hectare sits on a hillside overlooking the neighboring hamlet of Gamay (directly east of Saint Aubin and a neighbor to Puligny). The vineyard is a mix of 20 year old and 60 year old vines. The soils are classic clay and limestone and the vineyards face southwest. As with the other 1er Cru whites, this wine ages in barrel (20% new oak) for 12 months before bottling. The Sur Gamay yields a complex wine that often requires several years to express its full character marked by notes of honey and minerals.
Wine arrives the last week February, 2025.
