Domaine Corsin Saint-Véran `Vieilles Vignes` Saint-Véran AOC, France, is a superb dry white (Chardonnay) still wine crafted from Chardonnay grapes. After hand harvesting, the grapes are gently pressed and fermented in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks. 40% of the blend then undergoes 10 months of ageing in French oak barrels (20% new oak), with regular lees stirring to build texture. This wine offers complex aromatic notes of white flowers and hazelnut, leading to a round and rich palate defined by vibrant lemon zest, yellow peach, apricot, and a distinct mineral character, all lifted by bright acidity. It pairs beautifully with poultry, rich fish, or mild cheeses. This wine is vegan and vegetarian friendly.
75.0CL , 13.5% ABV

The fine lees were stirred regularly to add texture to the palate.
