Description
This Saint-Véran plot, from the southern half of the Mâconnais, measures 0.40 hectares and was planted in 1988 on beds of rich, calcareous clay. The grapes were harvested by hand, sorted and pressed in Mâcon before being decanted overnight and sent back to Puligny for fermentation. The wine is aged for 12 months at the Domaine in 20% new oak and then for 6 months in stainless steel barrels before bottling. The resulting wine is one of the best from Saint-Véran and grows in popularity and recognition year after year.
Aromatically, the wine is light and citrus-driven, salty and with a lingering scent of freshly baked apple pie. On the palate the wine is zesty with lemon and lime zest, a hint of cream in the mid-palate and an end note of chalky minerality.
