The JanotsBos Saint-Aubin 1er Cru Vignes Moingeon 2019 is an exquisite Chardonnay from the esteemed Vignes Moingeon vineyard, located on the same slope as Saint-Aubin’s famed En Remilly and Murgers des Dents de Chien. Crafted by Thierry Janots and Richard Bos, this 2019 vintage showcases their non-interventionist approach and passion for Burgundy’s terroir. The wine displays a pale gold hue and a vibrant nose of lemon zest, green apple, and passionfruit, with hints of grass, salinity, and a pronounced mineral edge. On the palate, it is dry, pure, and structured, with a refined balance of fruit, acidity, and a creamy texture from French oak aging. Flavors of mandarin and tropical fruit mingle with a chalky minerality, culminating in a long, clean finish with elegant finesse reminiscent of a Puligny-Montrachet. Produced with lutte raisonnée and minimal additives, this wine reflects the estate’s commitment to quality, earning praise for its complexity and terroir expression. It pairs beautifully with seafood, white meats, or aged cheeses, offering sophistication and versatility. With excellent aging potential, it will evolve over the next 10-15 years, making it a must-have for Burgundy collectors.
