Joseph Drouhin - Saint-Véran - Blanc - 2021

Wine:

The 2021 white Saint-Véran is a fresh and charming wine. The maturation without the addition of wood gives it an energetic and lively structure that brings it closer to a Pouilly-fuissé; the tension and the roundness are perfectly combined with ripe aromas of fruit and a radiant floral tone. This is a beautifully taut Chardonnay, with ripeness on the edge but which gives it relief and dynamism; a wine that is not at all extravagant! Ideal at the beginning of a meal, with dry cheeses or seafood.

Vinification:

Purchase of grapes from regular and monitored wine growers.
Slow pressing, 6 to 8 months maturation in vats.

Color:

Bright gold with good intensity.

Nose:

Very typical perfume of chardonnay, marked by notes of almond, butter and a beautiful minerality.

Dynamic and tense, this wine offers a palate of beautiful maturity, endowed with a beautiful floral tone.

Temperature:

To be decanted before serving between 10 and 12°C, in Royal Glass : Gran Ultima.
