Tasting notes
Reviewed by: William Kelley
From a recently acquired parcel that's full of missing vines and requires significant rehabilitation, the 2022 Saint-Aubin 1er Cru Murgers des Dents de Chien offers up aromas of pear, white flowers and marzipan, followed by a medium to full-bodied, ample and satiny palate that's bright, lively and penetrating. It's a strong debut effort.
About the Producer
Domaine de la Commaraine is a prestigious wine estate located in the heart of the Côte de Nuits region of Burgundy, France. The domain has a long-standing history dating back to the 15th century, but it was in the 1970s that the Devillard family acquired and revived the property. Under the stewardship of the Devillard family, Domaine de la Commaraine has become renowned for producing exceptional Pinot Noir and Chardonnay wines that showcase the unique terroir of the Commaraine vineyard. The estate's careful viticultural practices, including low yields and meticulous sorting, contribute to the elegance and complexity of the wines. Domaine de la Commaraine is recognized for its commitment to quality and its ability to capture the essence of Burgundian terroir.
