Notes of peaches and pears mingled with toasted nuts and iodine introduce the 2023 Saint-Véran Vigne de Saint-Claude, a medium to full-bodied, satiny and racy wine with tangy acids and chalky structure. This has once again turned out very nicely. 2024 - 2034
This small parcel of vines is situated in the village of Prissé, very close to the vines of Pouilly-Fuisse in Vergisson. The vines are around 50 years old and grown on a stony soil. Made from free-run juice only and fermentated and aged in barrel with 25% new oak. Bright lemon in colour, this is chock full of ripe peaches and pears on the nose, with a light touch of wood spice. The palate has impressive flesh in fruit but is balanced by a chalky grip and lithe, refreshing acidity. Bright, refreshing and tangy on the finish.
