Description
Located within the Southern region of Burgundy, Saint-Véran is an appellation for dry white wines. A neighbor to Pouilly-Fuissé, both lie in the chain of hills in which the famous Rock of Solutré is situated. Wine here are traditionally dry in style, yet more full-bodied than other white Burgundies. In their youth, they have floral aromas and notes of white stone fruit, developing into more honeyed, nutty aromas with age. The climate in the Saint-Véran catchment area is slightly warmer than in most of Burgundy, due to its Southerly location. The soils have a fair proportion of chalky clay components which are idea for crafting worldclass Chardonnay. This is region is a relatively hidden gem, and generally over delivers in terms of quality.
Tasting notes
Pale gold in color this Saint Véran offers up an intense and complex combination of aromas, mingling stone fruits and white flowers. Its generous palate, rounded and balanced with a long, acidulous and mineral finish, endows this wine with a pleasant and characteristic freshness. Crafted from 100% Chardonnay.
