The wine region of Saint-Véran
White gem of the Mâconnais (southern Burgundy) surrounding Pouilly-Fuissé: signature Chardonnay as exclusive white king — pale gold with green tints, fresh and harmonious with notes of citrus (lemon, grapefruit), white peach, apple, hawthorn, honey and a toasted-almond touch, lively balance of richness and freshness, signature minerality. More accessible and fruity than neighbouring Pouilly-Fuissé. AOC (1971), ~750 ha over 6 villages (Davayé, Prissé, Chasselas), limestone and clay, ages 3-6 yrs.
The wine region of Burgundy
Absolute reference for great terroir wines: opulent, mineral Chardonnay in whites (chiselled Chablis, buttery Meursault, majestic Montrachet), fine and silky Pinot Noir in reds (full-bodied Gevrey, structured Pommard, delicate Volnay). Exceptional age-worthy wines with complex notes - red fruits, undergrowth, butter, hazelnut. Some lively Aligoté and light Gamay (Mâconnais). 29,500 ha, 84 tiered AOCs (Régionale, Village, 1er Cru, Grand Cru), 1,247 UNESCO Climats.
The word of the wine: Reassembly
During the vinification process, a "cap" is formed at the top of the vats with the solid parts (skin, pulp, pips, etc.), which contain tannins and colouring elements. Pumping over consists of emptying the vat from the bottom and pouring the juice back to the top, in order to mix the cap and the juice and to favour the exchange and the extraction. This old technique allows a better exchange between the solid parts and the liquid.
