Domaine Marc Colin Saint-Aubin 1er Cru Les Combes 2024 Nerello Mascalese Decant it an hour aheadThe Land Saint Aubin is the Cte de Beaune's value hunter's secret, a cool side valley behind Chassagne and Puligny where Chardonnay grows on steep, limestone rich slopes. Les Combes is a premier cru on the eastern edge of the appellation, right up against the Chassagne Montrachet border, and that neighborhood shapes it: the wine leans a touch rounder and more open than the flinty crus higher up the valley, without losing Saint Aubin's stony backbone.
