Tasting Notes
Colour
Intense and bright in colour with golden hues.
Nose
Fresh notes of lime, verbena and tea.
Palate
The palate is flavoured and wide with ripe fruits and fern notes. A nice harmony, a generous and complex wine with a mineral and persistent finish.
Origin
At the southern tip of the Mâconnais, this vineyard brings together several villages in the North (Prissé and Davayé) and in the South (Leynes, Chasselas, Chânes, part of Solutré-Pouilly and of course Saint-Vérand) of the Roche de Solutré.
Vinification
Traditional vinification. The grapes are pressed on arrival at the winery using pneumatic presses. The fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks thermo-regulated at 16°C. The wines are aged on fine lees for 10 months in stainless steel vats.
Soil
Stony boulders and soil of clay and limestone from the Jurassic era.
