Wine The 2022 White Saint-Véran offers a perfect blend of freshness and charm. The aging process enhances the wine without overshadowing its natural qualities, creating a lively and energetic palate with a rich texture that closely resembles a Pouilly-Fuissé. The balance between tension and roundness is expertly achieved, featuring perfectly ripe fruity and floral notes. This Chardonnay is taut, with just the right maturity to add depth and vitality, without any excess. It’s an elegant wine, ideal for starting a meal, pairing wonderfully with dry cheeses or seafood.
Vinification Grapes purchased from regular, well-regarded winegrowers.
