2023 Jacques Bavard "Sur Gamay" - Saint-Aubin 1er Cru - 3 Bottles (0.75L)

A characterful white signed by Jacques Bavard Maison Jacques Bavard, based in Puligny-Montrachet, signs here a Saint-Aubin 1er Cru “Sur Gamay” 2023 that embodies the elegance and precision of the great whites from the Côte de Beaune. Although the name of the climat may be confusing, this cuvée is indeed a 100% Chardonnay white wine, from a historic Saint-Aubin parcel. This dry white wine presents a pale gold robe with green reflections, clear and bright. On the nose, it reveals fresh and complex aromas: white flowers (hawthorn, acacia), citrus fruits (lemon, grapefruit), a touch of gunflint and subtle notes of green almond. On the palate, the attack is lively and taut, carried by a fine acidity that quickly softens to flavors of white fruit, fresh hazelnut and flint. The finish, mineral and persistent, leaves an impression of purity and freshness. Terroir and winemaking The climate “Sur Gamay” benefits from a south-east exposure and clay-limestone soils typical of Saint-Aubin, which give the wine its tension, its minerality and its aging potential. Maison Jacques Bavard pursues a prudent winemaking approach, with fermentation in stainless steel tanks and partial aging in oak barrels (depending on the vintage), in order to preserve the fruit’s freshness while adding a touch of complexity. Food pairing This Saint-Aubin 1er Cru white is an ideal companion for: - Seafood (oysters, shrimp, langoustines) - Grilled or lightly sauced fish (sole, sea bass, bream) - Roasted poultry or poultry in cream (chicken, guinea fowl) - Soft cheeses (fresh goat cheese, brie, camembert) - Mild Asian dishes (egg rolls, sushi, vegetable wok) Cellaring potential This wine can be enjoyed young to appreciate its freshness and fruit, but it reveals its full complexity after 3 to 5 years of aging. If kept well in a cellar at a constant temperature (12–14 °C), it can evolve favorably for 8 to 10 years, developing notes of beeswax, honey and candied fruit. Serving tips Serving temperature: 10–12 °C Decant 15 to 30 minutes before tasting to open the aromas Recommended glass: white wine glass similar to a Bourgogne glass (large bowl)
