JACQUES SAUMAIZE 2023 SAINT VERAN LES CRAS

Saint-Véran "Les Cras" is a characterful cuvée marked by a deep mineral imprint. Sourced from a sunny, south-facing terroir resting on very stony limestone soil, it offers a masterful balance between power and freshness. The nose reveals aromas of white-fleshed fruits (peach, pear), complemented by spring flower notes and a hint of flint. On the palate, the wine commands beautiful density and ripe substance, immediately energized by saline acidity and a crystalline finish. Less opulent than some Pouilly-Fuissé, this Saint-Véran shines through its precision and ability to translate the purity of limestone. A great Burgundian white, both sharp and vibrant.
