7 years

Age of vines

37 years

Area

0.3 hectare

Altitude

350 metres

Terroir

Clay and limestone with a lot of red iron oxide. Facing full South above the village of Chasselas.

Vinification and Ageing

Hand-picked grapes, whole berries pressing, 100% vinified and aged in oak barrel (of 228 liters each) for 11 months.

The 37 year-old ploughed vines of our SAINT-VÉRAN CLIMAT « En Combe » lie on the outstanding slope of Chasselas, facing South. They draw minerality and fruit from this great terroir. The high level of iron oxide gives the wine its potential for ageing. Always a little austere when young, this is a great wine able to open up after 2 to 3 years in bottle.
