ABOUT THIS WINE
The Mâconnais is one of my favourite buying visits, and responsible for some of the best-value white burgundies around. Its a beautiful region, and exceptional cuvées can be found here at a fraction of the price of chardonnays further north in the Côte dOr.
One such is the delicious Saint-Véran les Ombrelles from the ever-reliable cellars of Maison Loron. Our latest shipment is from the five-star 2022 vintage. Its a wine that punches well above its weight, bringing us luscious citrus and stone fruit flavours with profound ripeness in perfect harmony with impressive poise and texture. A classy burgundy indeed tasted blind, this could be a good Pouilly-Fuissé.

Tasting Note
A first-class effort from Loron, with proper Burgundian style. Pale gold in colour, with an alluring, aromatic nose of ripe pears, white peach, acacia and honeysuckle. Broad, rounded and harmonious on the palate - six months ageing in barrel adds a nutty richness, and a subtle, smoky spice.
