- A deep golden Saint Véran with delicious notes of fresh pear combined with buttery brioche through to a long, elegant, and mineral finish. 2019 has been cited as an outstanding vintage and one of the best in recent years. The dry, warm conditions produced low yields of impeccably balanced, concentrated wines with searing freshness and remarkable purity. A mild winter followed a chilly spring, with frosts affecting some areas. Cooler temperatures in June resulted in uneven flowering and some millerandage in some vineyards. However, temperatures soared in July and August with vines under hydric stress, resulting in superb concentration of flavours.
Saint-Varan is an appellation for dry white wines produced in the southern half of the Maconnais subregion of Burgundy. Due to its southerly location, the climate in the Saint Varan area is slightly warmer than other parts of Burgundy. Consequently, spring frosts, which can threaten vines in cooler Burgundy appellations, are less dangerous here. Chardonnay grapes thrive in fossilferous limestone soils from the Middle Jurassic period.
