A 99 point masterpiece from legendary producer, Domaine Georges Vernay. The fruit was sourced from a prized vineyard partly planted by Christine Vernay’s grandfather before the appellation was established: from two mid-slope parcels, one planted in the 1960s, one before 1940, amounting to 4ha. Vinified in foudres and barriques, 5% new oak, for 12 months. Organic."

Gorgeous nose, full and vivid but serious; ginger and mint over white-fleshed fruits. Full but not heavy, with a gently creamy mid-palate. Amazing salinity and balance, finishing light and fresh.

A full bodied, rich and decadent white wine that comes from the Northern Rhône in France. These wines are deeply flavoured, complex and unctuous with perfumed aromas and intense flavours of honeysuckles, rose, peach, tangerine, mango and quince. Often paired with oak, these wines develop vanilla and nutty complexity that takes it to a whole other level of decadence. Beautiful and curvaceous wines to lose yourself in!
