2021 Verget Macon-Charnay Clos Saint Pierre - Macon Burgundy France
Clos Saint-Pierre lies on the south-facing slopes of the Mont du Mâconnais, where soils are varied but limestone is prevalent. Due to frost, the 2021 was drawn from very low yields, gifting a wine of impressive density to match this cool vintage’s energetic drive. Harvested from 23 to 24 September, the free-run juices fermented entirely in used barrels until the end of January.
The 2021 Mâcon-Charnay Clos Saint-Pierre is one of the standouts of the range this year, exhibiting aromas of citrus fruit, buttery pastry, pear, blanched almonds, white flowers and honey. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and seamless, it's a racy, nicely balanced wine that will drink well on release.”
