"Vigne de Saint-Claude" Saint-Véran Chardonnay
St. Véran, Mâconnais, Burgundy, France
Very much like a new world Chardonnay with that generous Macon nature. In a blind tasting I could easily pick this as Australian and be wrong. Peachy notes with lemon. Touch of pineapple juice. Vines are apparently 50 years of age and the wine sees 20% new oak. Drinks to its price point. Opened my final bottle 19 weeks later on 1st April 2022 with consistent notes. Very new world in style with notes of pineapple juice. Drinks to its price point of $44.

Very nice and juicy stuff with pineapple and citrusy flavors, cleverly framed by gentle oak treatment. Spicy mineral emerge on the back palate. Great Q/R-ratio.

Nice taste. Crisp but with a late slightly sweet aftertaste.

Really good! Lean but with real stony depth. This is guffens heynen negociant I think
