The estate and the wine |
|
|
"Au pied du Mont Chauve" is the family Picard’s haute couture selection, showcasing wines from Burgundy’s most prestigious terroirs. Crafted from biodynamically farmed vineyards and tended with the same care as Grand Crus, these wines embody precision and excellence.
With exceptional parcels in Chassagne, Puligny, and Corton, this elite domaine produces true gems, where barrel aging is perfectly judged to enhance rather than overpower. The collection is limited and highly selective, with a strong focus on Chassagne-Montrachet, which the Picard family has cultivated for 70 years, alongside a standout Saint-Aubin Premier Cru. |

The 2020 White Saint-Aubin Premier Cru Le Charmois, bordering Chassagne-Montrachet in Pimont, strikes a perfect balance between freshness and concentration. The nose offers delicate reductive notes from the lees, floral nuances, and a touch of oak that adds depth and roundness. On the palate, the wine reflects the ripeness and structure of the vintage, combining richness with a vibrant freshness. The oak aging brings additional texture and length without overpowering the purity of the fruit. A superb Saint-Aubin Premier Cru, rated 93/100 by the Selection Committee. |
