Year on year, François D’Allaines improves his sources of supply and the relationships with his growers. Those who don’t perform are dropped. His knowledge and skill in the fine art of élevage, or maturation of his wines, is developing. He makes precise judgements on how much lees to leave in the barrel, how much sulphur to add, when to rack into tank and when to bottle.
Really stylish premier cru Saint-Aubin, which comes from the valley just behind Puligny, whose fl oral, fi ne-boned yet persistent character it mirrors. Global warming has been good for this enclosed valley allowing more regular ripening whilst still maintaining an appealing freshness. In 2013 François extended the time in barrel from 12 to 18 months as the wine merited the extra time to develop its full potential. 2016–2020.
