Suggestion from October 16 2019
Wine: 2017 St. Aubin "Les Castets"
Producer: Domaine Henri Prudhon et Fils
Comment: Once again there is a deft application of wood present on the citrusy green apple and acacia blossom aromas. The palate impression of the medium weight flavors is both racier and more refined while the intensely stony and saline-infused finish is clean, dry, focused and much more complex. This markedly dry but not really austere effort is really very good and worth checking out.
