Description

Henri Prudhon & Fils Saint-Aubin Rouge 1er Cru 'Sur le Sentier du Clou - Vieilles Vignes' 2021This wine is from some of the oldest vines in the estate, planted between 45 and 85 years ago. The parcel is about 1. 5 hectare in size and sits on a hillside between Saint Aubin and Gamay with an east southeast exposure. There is an levage of 15 to 18 months (with very little new oak used). Perhaps the most serious and complex of the red wines of the domaine with a character dominated by red fruits and spices supported by substantial backbone.
