2018 Henri & Gilles Buisson Saint-Romain Sous le Chateau

The warmest climat of the trio of whites, “Sous le Chateau” offers an incredibly satisfying white Burgundy experience, with a presence and finesse one might mistake for Puligny-Montrachet if served blind. This wine shares a quinine imprint with Sous la Velle above, but with an intriguing note of white pepper and a bit more regal, less punchy sense of minerality. The tension between its ample fruit and tingling acidity is mouthwatering.

William Kelley/Wine Advocate – “Unwinding in the glass with notes of citrus oil, crisp green orchard fruit, white flowers and subtle hints of fresh pastry, the 2018 Saint-Romain Sous le Château is medium to full-bodied, elegantly textural and incisive, with a tightly coiled core, racy acids and fine concentration. As usual, this is one of the most complete wines in this range of Saint-Romain lieux-dits.”
