"The 2023 Saint V,ran … la C"te comes from vines located over 400 meters in altitude on iron-oxidised soils. This has a complex, mineral-driven bouquet that blossoms in the glass with hints of white fruit, lanolin and beeswax. The palate offers exquisite balance and tension that offsets the density of this Saint V,ran. It fulfills my expectations from barrel last year and fans out wonderfully on the finish. Excellent."

"The 2022 Saint V,ran … la C"te comes from a parcel located at 400m that tends to ripen slowly, aged for 12 months in demi-muids and barrels. This offers light brushes of quince and Clementine, a hint of wild honey but that remains in the background. The palate is beautifully balanced with a perfect line of acidity, quite a phenolic Saint-V,ran, a touch more peppery than I remember this from barrel with a very persistent finish. Absolutely delicious,"

"Ripe, sweet citrus and a suggestion of sweet spice as well as a fine stone-dust character. Not fully meshed on the palate but with promise. (JH)"
