Saint-Aubin Blanc 1er Cru Sur le Sentier du Clou

The Prudhons have both Chardonnay and Pinot Noir planted in this lieu-dit. There is almost a half hectare planted to Chardonnay on this hillside site that sits northeast of the village. The vines are 35 years old and face east-southeast. An élevage of twelve months in barrel (approximately 25% new oak) precedes the bottling. The age of the vines and excellent exposure produce a wine of precision and character with firm minerality and broad shoulders.
