Tasting notes
Pale yellow in color, our Saint-Veran "Les Deux Moulins" 2017 reveals a fresh and floral nose with notes of fresh almond and vanilla. Full-bodied wine with a nice
minerality.
Description
Situated in the very South of the Maconnais, the Saint-Veran vineyards form a gilded belt around Pouilly-Fuisse. The two are similar in terms of relief and production techniques, even in their actual taste and fragrance. The area's Jurassic chalk soil and the vineyard's ideal exposure
combine perfectly to produce top quality fruit. Saint-Veran << Les Deux Moulins >> takes its name from the two watermills that straddle La Petite Grosne river. The rain that falls on the vineyards, filters through the calcareous bedrock to help feed the river as it flows away west
towards the famous monastic town of Cluny. Once harvested, the grapes are fermented in stainless steel in order to preserve the freshness of the fruit. A slow, cool fermentation allows the wine to maintain its rich and concentrated flavours.
