Description
This Saint-Véran, produced by Domaine Auvigue, showcases the excellence of Chardonnay from the Mâconnais region of southern Burgundy. Crafted from vines grown on chalk and limestone hillsides, the wine offers a structured palate with notes of ripe white fruits, hazelnut, and a hint of citrus to enhance its natural vibrancy. Extended lees ageing in stainless steel imparts a creamy texture and layers of complexity, evoking the finesse of its esteemed Pouilly-Fuissé neighbours.
Domaine Auvigue is led by third-generation proprietors Jean-Pierre and Michel Auvigue, whose meticulous approach has earned them a place among the top producers in the region. Their small-scale yet high-quality operation is internationally recognised, with their wines featured in many Michelin-starred restaurants. Sustainably produced, vegetarian, and vegan-friendly, this wine pairs beautifully with creamy pasta, river fish, chicken, or goat’s cheese.
