Saint-Aubin Le Banc 2019

The 2019 Saint-Aubin Le Banc is very promising, delivering aromas of pear, orange oil, white flowers and wheat toast. Medium-bodied, bright and incisive, it's racy and precise, with fine depth at the core. Racked to tank not long before my visit for bottling early in the new year, I suspect it will fill out a little as it finishes its élevage. This is one of the easier-to-find wines in the range, and it represents a fine introduction to the house style—and the racy wines of Saint-Aubin. (WK, 1/2021)
