2018 Saint-Aubin 1er Cru Les Perrières, Domaine Agnès Paquet

Just 4 barrels (equivalent to less than 100 cases) exist here of this rare Saint-Aubin First Growth, which fermented in a combination of new, 1, 2, and 3-year old barrels. It is pale lemon-gold, with a rich nose, open and lively. Palate shows immaculate freshness, with ample fruit intensity and lovely length (for drinking 2020-2025+).
