Verget Saint-Veran, 2004
Okay, so my colleague has suggested that I preface this review with a note of explanation. My love for White Bugundy is absolute. However, I feel that when I find an exceptional producer, in an albeit exceptionally large area, who has produced amazing wines time and time again, I will never stop praising their product. In this case Verget has done it again with their Saint-Veran, 2004…
This wine comes from some of the best terroir sites in the villages of Saint-Veran, Priss鬠Leynes and Davay鮠Created completely in stainless tank, the nose comes across nutty, and covered with fresh cut flowers. The tastes are a whirlwind of minerals and apples. The wine has an unbelievable length of finish, which demonstrates the winemaker?s care in creation, and selection of fruit.
I could only imagine walking out into some of the most beautiful vineyards, on the most gorgeous land, to create such a breathtaking wine. I could sit, watch the sun fall over the vineyard, and enjoy a meal of mushroom risotto and fresh French cheese. What a life!
