Domaine Guerrin & Fils, Saint-Veran "le Clos Vessats", 2023

Very Expressive Saint-Véran with Smooth Buttery finish

This is a very expressive Saint-Véran, revealing aromas of citrus and white flowers, especially acacia. In the mouth, right from the attack this wine is rounded and smooth, with lovely fresh fruit providing notes of pear, peach, and a hint of fresh hazelnut. The finish is marked by a pleasant, buttery smoothness.

• 100% Chardonnay 
• Fruit harvested from a single climat - plot or "clos"

STORY BEHIND THE WINE

The Guerrin’s estate dates from 1926 and can be found at the heart of the protected natural site between the Roche de Solutré and the Roche de Vergisson in southern Burgundy, just to the west of Mâcon. Today the fourth generation works a patchwork of 35 small vineyards spread over 15 hectares and various soil types. Respecting nature and farming sustainably with 90% of work done manually and fermenting with native yeasts are key to highlighting their excellent terroir.
