Jonathan Ray's Verdict
"The 2024 Collovray & Terrier, Saint-Véran Réserve from Christian Collovray and Jean-Luc Terrier - Gault & Millau's recent Burgundy Winemakers of the Year - is a joy. Full-bodied and lightly honeyed, it's a lusciously juicy 100 per cent Chardonnay that's hard to resist. "Robust enough to go with food," said Mrs Ray draining her glass without a snack in sight."

Discover One of Burgundy's Finest Chardonnay Appellations
Saint-Véran has become one of Burgundy's best-loved appellations, producing beautifully balanced Chardonnays that combine richness, freshness and remarkable elegance. This outstanding example from Christian Collovray and Jean-Luc Terrier showcases exactly why the region enjoys such a fine reputation
Crafted from 100% Chardonnay, the wine opens with gentle honeyed notes before layers of tropical fruit and creamy texture unfold across the palate. Beneath the generosity lies the freshness and minerality of Saint-Véran's limestone soils, giving the wine wonderful balance and length. Whether enjoyed with seafood, roast chicken or creamy dishes, this is classic White Burgundy at its most approachable.
A White Burgundy You'll Return To Time and Again
Gentle honeyed aromas introduce a beautifully textured Chardonnay layered with tropical fruit and subtle creaminess. The richness is perfectly balanced by the freshness and minerality of Saint-Véran's limestone soils, creating a wine that's generous, elegant and unmistakably White Burgundy.
Enjoyed over Christmas having purchased in the sale for someone who loves wines from Uchizy, great price for a really pleasant unoaked Chardonnay. Came back for more and it has now sold out, unsurprisingly.
Pale gold in the glass, with a vibrant clarity and gentle luminosity that hints at a refined yet approachable expression of Chardonnay. Delivers serious Burgundy charm at a great value. It?s unoaked in style but benefits from lees ageing to ensure body and complexity. The interplay between tropical and citrus fruit, balanced by limestone minerality, gives this Chardonnay both depth and finesse.
