"A fresh St-Véran with no frills".

Saint-Véran, Clos des Poncétys, with its bright yellow color and golden highlights, displays all its intensity with delicacy. Pineapple and mango aromas mingle with pear and peach notes with finesse and precision. The balance on the palate builds on the aromas detected on the nose, lengthening on the finish with a long, saline persistence. Gourmet finesse!

Expert opinion

Bettane & Desseauve

Domain rated (2019 guide) 2*Stars (A serious and recommendable production, but a little more regular and homogeneous than the previous one)

About the domain :

This estate, located in the heart of the best Davayé terroirs, is owned by the Lycée Viticole de Mâcon Davayé, and for some years now has been courageously practicing organic farming on no less than 16 hectares, mainly in the Saint-Véran appellation. The winemaking approach here has a major impact on the style of the wines, with very unadorned juices undergoing prolonged fermentation at low temperature. The result is a modern, seductive profile. Note a rare and more original production of reds, which we were unable to taste, and for the anecdote, some highly esteemed goat cheeses!
