The 2021 Meurgey-Croses Saint-Véran "Clos de la Maison" is a refined expression of Burgundy's Mâconnais region. Crafted by Pierre Meurgey, a fourth-generation Burgundian wine trader, this wine benefits from sustainably farmed vineyards with vines averaging 60 years in age. The combination of stainless steel fermentation and partial oak aging allows for a balance between freshness and complexity. 

 

TASTING NOTES: This wine presents a broad, rich profile with flavors of peach and baking spice, underpinned by a lemon base. The palate is well-defined and long, with lingering notes of citrus and spice. 

 

FOOD PAIRINGS: Delicious as an aperitif, this Saint-Véran pairs well with shellfish, fish dishes, poultry, and goat cheeses.
