Domaine Frantz Chagnoleau Saint-Veran A la Cote 2022 - Bt | NM93

Tasting note

The 2022 Saint Véran à la Côte comes from a parcel located at 400m that tends to ripen slowly, aged for 12 months in demi-muids and barrels. This offers light brushes of quince and Clementine, a hint of wild honey but that remains in the background. The palate is beautifully balanced with a perfect line of acidity, quite a phenolic Saint-Véran, a touch more peppery than I remember this from barrel with a very persistent finish. Absolutely delicious.

Score: 93
