2023 Domaine des Poncetys Saint-Véran 'Classic' Les Climats 0.75 Ltr. Blanc
picture of

Bright yellow with golden hues. Flexibility that suggests fullness. Very expressive. Complex equilibrium with a wide variety of flavours. Notes of peach jam and apricot mingle with the smell of caramel and vanilla milk on fine mineral shades. Followed by aromas of ripe white fruit supported by subtle touch of toasted bread and vanilla. Pronounced in the mouth. Full flavour that expresses the ripeness of the grape. Floral and buttery Chardonnay with a splendid balance and full, ripe flavors.

"apéritif", fish, white meat.

vinification

100% Chardonnay. Grapes are harvested by hand, sorted out when picking the grapes and on our sorting table. They are lightly pressed then in a pneumatic press at a low pressure to get a slow extraction. After a gentle racking of the must, the wine is put in French oak casks of 500 liters (10% of new oak) for both of alcoholic and malolactic fermentations with wild yeasts and aged during 11 months. During this time, we did the stirring of the lees in the barrels. A month before the bottling, the wine from the different barrels is put in a stainless steel tank to make the blend. The wine is finally fined and lightly filtered before bottling
