Les Petits Lieux Saint-Romain La Combe Bazin 2024

A single-lieu-dit Saint-Romain white from Henri Jayer's old cellar — which is about as unlikely a sentence as Burgundy produces right now. Saint-Romain sits high and cool in a fold behind the Côte de Beaune, which is why its Chardonnay stays tense and stony while flashier villages down the slope get rich, and why it remains one of the last white Burgundy addresses that still feels reachable. La Combe Bazin is a named site within the appellation, bottled on its own rather than blended away into a village cuvée. The wine comes from Guillaume Rouget, great-nephew of Henri Jayer — the "Pope of Pinot Noir," famed for Richebourg and Cros Parantoux — who in 2023 bought his great-uncle's cuverie with the stated ambition of bringing exceptional wines back to life there, and who runs Les Petits Lieux with the oenologist Laure Guilloteau. 100% Chardonnay, and a domaine worth following from the beginning.

More about Les Petits Lieux

Les Petits Lieux is the new project of Guillaume Rouget, son of Emmanuel Rouget, the nephew who inherited Henri Jayer's vineyards, and his wife Laure Guilloteau. They bought Jayer's old house and cellar in Vosne-Romanée, which had sat unused for about twenty years with his equipment still in place, and make the wines there. With no vineyards of their own yet, they buy grapes from carefully chosen sites, from Marsannay to Saint-Romain, and use little or no new oak. Bright, fresh and rooted in tradition.

Flatiron's Take

From the Importer

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Roast chicken with lemon and thyme, sole meunière, gougères, a bowl of moules marinière, grilled trout with brown butter, or a wedge of Comté.

Tasting Profile

Dry white with aromas of citrus, orchard fruit and a chalky, struck-stone edge. Medium-bodied and lean rather than creamy, with bright, firm acidity running straight through. Finishes crisp and saline.
