Verget House
Maison Verget is a Burgundy wine merchant house now owned by two enthusiasts. Nothing predisposed Flemish-born Maine and Jean-Marie Guffens-Heynen to create a domaine which, in just a few years and through hard work, would become one of the world's most renowned for the quality of its wines, apart from a shared passion for vines and wine and a particularly creative artistic sensibility.

This talented duo is also involved in the destiny of Maison Verget, a small wine merchant in the heart of the Mâconnais region, which is equally successful, as its wines demonstrate elegance, finesse, and the ability to convey, more than any other, expressions that are as close to the terroir as possible. Maison Verget's raison d'être is to bring out the full character of its appellations by revealing their terroirs. This process has been successfully implemented for some time now in the Chablis and Côte d'Or appellations. But it's in the Mâconnais region, historically a producer of generic wines, that this approach really comes into its own. This is where Maison Verget produces the most different wines for each appellation. This approach allows you to discover every aspect, every nuance, in a word, every subtlety of a single appellation. Thanks to its original approach, Maison Verget has become a laboratory of terroirs and a creator of climates.

"From a parcel at the very top of the Puligny hill, Sous le Puits offers very pure, powdery citrus aromas, its fresh character and fine woodiness suiting us very well. The palate is more affected by the ageing, but the whole retains good balance. A good example of Puligny d'éducation ". (Le Guide RVF 2021).

Bresse chicken with morels
1er cru

The nose of this Pouilly-Fuissé 1er Cru is fresh and complex, with aromas of toast, very fresh butter and gunflint. The palate is clean and rich, with great density at the start, and quickly evolves on very mineral notes. This is a very precise wine. Remarkable length on the palate thanks to its minerality.

originality

"An outstanding wine worthy of the greatest".

"Composed of 28% Semillon from Barsac (Closiot), 20% Viognier and 20% Roussanne from Domaine des Tourettes, plus 30% Burgundy Chardonnay. Woody? Everything is woody except the chardonnays, Guffens-Heynens' first presses. Chardonnay certainly dominates the nose, but this first approach is striking for its complexity, beautiful toasted-grilled notes and consistency from start to finish. The aroma is very impressive, very Guffens. The palate blends power and freshness, noble wood and racy structure in great balance. Purity and texture worthy of the greatest ". (Le Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France - RVF) - Packaged in screw-cap.

"A rare gem

"The 2009 Chablis Vaudésir has a very pure bouquet with lovely scents of limestone and smoke percolating through the veneer of lime and grapefruit. The palate is well balanced with a clean line of acidity, good depth with a concentrated, resinous, peach-skin finish that lingers well on the palate." (Wine Advocate)

"A very successful vintage".

"In Pouilly-Fuissé, Les Combes plays on a rounded, honeyed register, while the Vignes Dessus cuvée, with its straighter profile, also goes further in its length." (Le Guide RVF) An exemplary cuvée in a 2013 vintage with particularly low yields. A wine of great density and intensity.

pretty bottle

"There are only 2,000 bottles of the 2018 Pouilly-Fuissé Les Vernays, a cuvée from fine, chalky soils. Unfolding in the glass with notes of green pear, wheat toast and beeswax, it's medium- to full-bodied, powerful and muscular, with a racy backbone of acidity and abundant chalky dry extract, finishing with a long, penetrating finish. Well worth seeking out" (Wine Advocate 2019).

"The 2018 Mâcon-Bussières Vignes de Montbrison offers aromas of pear and green apple, framed by toasty oak. On the palate, it's dense, concentrated and muscular, with a thorn of acidity and a well-balanced profile. This vintage of old vines has had 20% new wood this year, which marks it a little more than it was last year." (Wine Advocate 2019 - William Kelley)

"The 2018 Saint-Véran Terroirs de Davayé was vinified entirely in barrels this year, as the winery didn't have enough space to ferment the wine in vats, so it's a touch more oaky than usual, offering aromas of honeyed orchard fruit, spice and praline. On the palate, the wine is dense, powerful and structured, with lively acids and a woody finish." (Wine Advocate 2019 - William Kelley)

"The 2016 Pouilly-Fuissé La Roche is the king of Domaine Verget this year, unfolding in the glass with aromas of crisp yellow fruit, green pear, nutmeg and marzipan. On the palate, it's powerful, full-bodied and satiny, with a rich fruit core balanced by tangy notes and finishing on a long, precise finish. It's hard to find a better Mâconnais at this price."

"Pommard Saucilles is immediately round, with a lovely, concentrated structure". (Le Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France 2013 - RVF). A wine of astonishing roundness and smoothness on the palate, with a hint of bitterness on the finish that gives it a lovely freshness. Very tasty!

"The Pouilly-Fuissé Les Combes Vieilles Vignes 2015 comes from vines facing North and South, and 25% spend 7 months in new barrels. It has a seductive bouquet with notes of roasted nuts complementing the citrus, as well as light sea spray that brings personality to this wine. The palate is very well balanced, with a peachy attack, crisp acidity and plenty of spice towards the finish. [...] This is a very fine Pouilly-Fuissé. " (Wine Advocate 2016 - Robert Parker)
