The 2016 St Aubin 1er Cru les Murgers des Dents de Chien had a small reduction on the nose that enhanced the vibrant green apple and slate like aromas. The palate is tensile, quite angular on the entry, modest weight in the mouth but I find more precision on the finish compared to the Perrières this year. This is a well-crafted Saint Aubin from one of its most reputed vineyards.

The 2015 St Aubin 1er Cru les Murgers des Dents de Chien had been racked the previous Friday before my visit. As such the bouquet was muted, so I had to bypass the aromatics. The palate is somehow quite playful with touches of passion fruit and white peach. It seems more forward and generous than the Les Perrières (this despite the recent racking), whilst the finish lingers nicely in the mouth, leaving a light saline residue. There is good potential locked into this Saint Aubin, even if the Saint Aubin Perrières might possess more drive.

The 2014 St Aubin 1er Cru les Murgers des Dents de Chien was a little backward, tight-lipped on the nose like the Les Perrières. The palate is much better with crisp acidity, fine mineralité, effervescent with orange zest and lemon peel leading to a poised, quite sustained saline finish. This is a very fine, tensile Saint Aubin from Jean-Michel Chartron.
